   @jsdenier @PunishedD Meshtastic unfortunately is designed on all proprietary software, thus it glows.
   
   The bandwidth is only really high enough to send text messages and thus it can't function as an internet replacement.
   
   I don't see why you would see that there is proprietary software installed onto ISP "blue coat" spying computers and think of "firmware".
   
   You'll need to get a connection to the real internet via something like tor, but it is important to not get caught.

     @jsdenier Do they also control the wired Internet in your area? If so, Meshtastic will only help with local comms.
