The Atlantic Wire – Now, it’s worth pointing out that people brag about lofty goals and far-fetched plans all the time at conferences. Sometimes they follow through and these schemes become a reality; often they do not. This particular plan, however, is already in the works. Armin Bauer, a 26-year-old “enthusiast” according to Meyer, describes the Chaos Computer Club’s plan for a decentralized, non-profit Internet alternative as a “kind of reverse GPS” that would enable anybody to set up a ground station that would connect with purpose-built, low-orbit satellites in order to communicate with others. The Internet, after all, is basically just a web of connections between a bunch of computers. And while the plan is feasible, experts say it’s complicated, both for technical and legal reasons. “There is also an interesting legal dimension in that outer space is not governed by the countries over which it floats,” one professor told the BBC. “So, theoretically it could be a place for illegal communication to thrive. However, the corollary is that any country could take the law into their own hands and disable the satellites.”
