Quad9 is leaving France over pirate site blocking orders, which makes it the second DNS resolver to leave the country. Quad9 will stop serving French users on November 24, after a Paris court set a €1,000 daily penalty for not blocking pirate tennis streams. Faced with this order and roughly 20 other pending French cases, Quad9 says that it has no other viable option left.
It’s why these things are more for hobbyist, backup, disaster recovery or if government shuts down the internet. They’re not meant to be nice and convenient.
I ask again, with what information? Just having a network means squat, unless some has downloaded and stored all this information. And who’s paying for the harddrives and power requirements? Maintenance? Security?
You’re honestly selling a dream, even if the netowrk exists that it’s useable enmasse, where is the information coming from? How’s it being stored for everyone else to access? What you have in your city, won’t be in mine. How do you transfer the data between cities?
why, who is paying for the fediverse? and how does information appear on it?
not all information has to be stored inside these small distributed networks. a lemmy running on it could communicate with other fediverse servers still on the public internet. or with those running on the I2P network, or with those accessible some other way.
From external sources… which is what would be censored. Follow the chain, it’s about a specific scenario. Hardly any of the Fediverse is locally stored other than the comments, it’s mostly news links. Which would be blocked….
And how does Lemmy communicate with another server if there’s no connection? You’re ignoring how the system is being censored or limited. Yes if none of these were issues or a concern, you could use a mesh network for stuff. But that’s no what was asked.

It’s a great imaginary thing though.
