Simple Network Access and Communications.
Just hashing around some ideas and thoughts here: A "new" type of decentralized Internet that is very, very loosely based on old style BBS's. Possibly text based? Graphics are secondary as opposed to the more "modern" Internet. Though would provide a simpler (and quite possibly more secure) means of streaming both audio and video without using DRM or getting throttled by any ISP (nor would EU's Amendment 13 have any teeth at this point). Security concerns would not be as existent as they are now. A possible "holy grail" of global connectivity? Maybe. It is possible.
The Internet needs to change its current form from the users view to the way the content is delivered to how the content is presented. In its present form, the Internet is too easily controlled by corporations and governments. The only way to ensure a free and open global network is to destroy the Internet in its present form.
NO, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT OR CALLING FOR PHYSICALLY DESTROYING THE INTERNET AS WE KNOW IT. Nice try...
We don't need to. We just need to make the current Internet commercially nonviable for those whom have hurt the very freedoms the Internet entailed. One way to do this is to remove the ISPs from the equation. Those who deliver the content should not own the content they deliver. Another way to do this is to change the backbone of the Internet itself. How whilst using older or existing technologies but making room for future technologies? It can be done.
