Factions in a Digital Age

Interesting paper - It provoked two thoughts...

1. How best could an mesh network be achieved. There are likely many different ways to do this - focus on wireless routers, or PCs? Ideally you want to build a process that creates its own momentum - How could this be done? Does FON figure into this or is it just an unnecessary interim step?

2. What does the state have to do beyond mandating public use of white spaces? In the physical world the state still plays a role after architecture is built. Is there a similar role in the wireless world?
