The Athenians aren't alone. Scores of communities worldwide have been
building these roll-your-own networks—often because a mesh can also
be used as a cheap way to access the regular internet. But along the
way people are discovering an intriguing upside: Their new digital
spaces are autonomous and relatively safe from outside meddling. In
an era when governments and corporations are increasingly tracking our
online movements, the user-controlled networks are emerging as an almost
subversive concept. "When you run your own network," Bonicioli explains,
"nobody can shut it down."
