> I’ve been dreaming lately of a tor-like network that’s based loosely on the idea of tailnets. Rather than blockchain bullshit, you’d have a direct ring of trust with friends, and then you could set up access policies to forward packets for people you don’t trust, but who know someone you do trust.

Might want to check out Yggdrasil. It lets you can create a real mesh routed, E2E encrypted network. You can keep your network private, or connect it to the greater network and route others. There's no ring-of-trust (I can't imagine that as a viable solution at scale). But the config file has an AllowedPublicKeys section if you want to specify who can route through your node.
