> The X-Prize is intended precisely for this type of industry stagnation No. Take a look Ansari X-Prize, the first of this kind. The theoretic foundations for spaceflight were laid out about a century ago, the first flight took place in 1961. So this is something which is very well understood. The prize was, basically, for tweaking the components to make it cheaper. But you're asking somebody to invent a new method, without providing a theoretical foundation for it to work in. So this would be like asking to invent a teleporter or faster-than-light travel. Besides that, other x-prizes were formulated as a contained experiments. E.g. demonstrate that your spacecraft can fly, or provide a program which offers better recommendations. But what you describe is not an experiment. You actually want participants to go an change how the Internet works. This isn't contained. So you're being downvoted for being extremely naive. You seem to believe that a kickstarter campaign and a github repo can solve any problem.
