I'm going to start a "newspaper" that is delivered digitally. I'm going to use old routers that I can get for cheap at the thrift store and daisy chain them together to make a mesh network and deliver "hyper local" news to my neighbors. I will sit in the local Magistrate's court and publish an accounting of how many bogus laws he upheld... How many greedy fines that he issued that day... I'll also do city hall meetings so that I can get a record of how they vote themselves business deals and subvert the election process. This network will not be connected to the internet so that it doesn't get DDOS'd by the syndicate's script kiddies.

Awesome. I suppose my next train of thought is; how do I get this information to Grandma Jones and Corey Millennial in a way that resonates with them. I suppose this is really a multi-tier problem; Identify sources, compile intel, in a desirable format, with as much relevance as possible, to as many people as possible, and preferably with a clearly defined path forward.

I've been looking for someone to work with me on this one... Care to collaborate?

So what do you have in mind? I've been brainstorming here and there but haven't come to a concrete plan.
