Reminds me of the cuban sneakernet "el paquete semanal". Should be possible to use sticks and sdcards that are passed around for quite async very slow encrypted communication or messaging boards.
Devices like the LoRa QWERTY Messenger by Scott Powell or one of the LoRa extensions for smartphones people are building, could be useful for communication, too.

I once read something about a system people were using in remote african villages to sync data via usb sticks but i can't find it.

- bronco21016 6y agoI really like the idea of the LoRa devices. However, I worry about them drawing attention to users and causing further issues. An oppressive government will eventually realize they are in use and start tracking down their locations. What type of measures could be done to limit attributing the LoRa device to individual users?
