What are your backup plans for an internet and telecom shutdown?
I don’t believe trusting in satilite internet companies (especially one owned by a fascist) are very practical.
Outside of radio and ad-hoc networks however, I’m not sure what other options would be feasible for the average person that wanted to prepare for something like this.
Sadly, I don’t have the time or money to put into the plans that we should really have in place. Both for this, and just for hurricane emergencies. The plan would be mesh networking and local data caches though. I’d follow the book on these matters. (The book is the freely distributed “Wireless Networking in the Developing World”, a practical guide to building local networks anywhere.)
