NYC Mesh pays for a backhaul. I assume that this use is covered in the ToS, but it isn't just a normal residential internet connection.

NYC Mesh pays for it through donations. Last I checked they were trying to setup a 501c3 to manage this, unsure of the status though.

This is basically what Reddit was doing before with "shadow bans". IIRC they had to stop because they just couldn't keep up with it and were banning people that shouldn't have been.

Interesting points about enforcement.

But I think the real barrier to adoption is that most people don't mind using centralized systems. If their Visa card works when they swipe it, they don't think beyond that. If it's easier for the end user when systems are centralized, breaking people out of this mindset will be very difficult.

LogMeIn | Designer - New Product Innovation | Boston | ONSITE I work at LogMeIn, and while we are now a huge SaaS company my team is focused on operating independently to build an awesome new product.

We are a super small team of engineers, product, and data nerds. We all wear lots of hats depending on the day but we are looking for a great designer to join us to lead all things visual. You will be responsible for creating prototypes, high fidelity designs, interviewing users, designing and performing other types of research, brand management and more.

Since we are part of a larger company we can offer full benefits, awesome new offices in Seaport, and competitive salaries. Shoot me an email if you want to find out more - [email protected]

It doesn't sound like they have been hacked directly. This looks like the same things as TeamViewer where hackers are using password lists from other breaches to attempt to compromise the high value remote desktop targets.

This seems awfully shortsighted. Perhaps some 'home' devices are gratuitous at this point but certainly there are other uses for headless devices to be connected to the internet.

Yes, the only thing that benefits from a an internet connection is a computer, but eventually everything will need to have a computer in it.
