Check out this article on high tech anarchy protests during the RNC Convention in NYC. While I don’t condone the illegal uses (e.g., breaking in on protected licensed frequencies), I do applaud the many creative uses of wireless networking — made possible by the FCC unlicensed rules.
And I’m off on vacation, culminating in the community wireless summit. No doubt I’ll have loads to wax eloquent about when I return.
Stay tuned . . .
A key point in my book (and blog) is "low coal" for some countries is just lots of "something else", especially gas. US found cheap tight/shale gas (and UK did so much earlier ala North Sea).
This is just considering gas for power - gas for HEATING is a whole other issue. https://twitter.com/Peters_Glen/status/1393107688935002113
I did these figures after hearing "we're using a fraction of the coal per capita, that countries like the US or Germany" @DrTongia in a podcast with @JasonBordoff
Here is a direct comparison with some key countries.

.@publicknowledge just published my 1st blog post: "🚫🧢 ('No Cap'): The Truth about Data Caps & Zero-Rating." I expound on @haroldfeld's previous argument, explaining why zero-rating is a distraction from the real culprit limiting #consumerchoice: DATA CAPS. And that's on "🚫🧢"
My only comment is that this stuff intrigues the hell out of me and I don’t understand it nearly as well as I want to. Therefore if I can make it out to Illinois for this conference I will do so. If not, I’ll hope to catch up with y’all at worldcon and get myself more properly informed then.
