The oakland internet choice initiative is picking up speed!
> The Oakland Internet Choice Coalition (OICC) is organizing to provide a
legal path requiring landlords of large multi-tenant buildings to allow
*any *qualified Internet service provider to serve their tenants.
Oakland City Council President Rebecca Kaplan is looking for community
support in the next couple of months.
If you live in Oakland, read more about it and send her an email:

support independent ISPs in their fight against the big monopolies.

Apparently David and Niki's house has an antenna partially set up but it
was never turned on. Anybody know what happened or how to get it finished?
Thanks!

Hey meshers,
Come check out this event where I'll be on a panel called "The Future of
the Internet: Protocols vs. Platforms" in SOMA on Thurs Feb 20 6:30pm. It's
free!
I'll be joined by Mike Masnick (Techdirt), Cory Doctorow, Ashley Tyson
(Web3 Foundation). The Lincoln Network, the organization putting it on, is
a tech-libertarian non-profit think tank so there might be some
conservative folks there. Wanted more of you to show up and support and
help me make those other audience members …
[View More]uncomfortable! lulz.

Hope to see some of you there!
