FaceTime Without the Internet | Data Slayer FaceTiming without Apple... I tested whether consumer apps like FaceTime, Signal, WhatsApp, and Zoom work on an off-grid #HaLow#mesh#network with zero internet. The key discovery: FaceTime and Signal connect peer-to-peer if they can find each other on any local network — Apple's servers aren't in the loop. The climax was a two-car highway test where Emilia and I held a FaceTime call at 70 mph, bridged only by Haven nodes and sub-gigahertz antennas. The conclusion: the "loophole" isn't a hack — it's the original peer-to-peer design we forgot about once we handed the internet to five companies. #MeshNetwork#OffGrid#P2P

I Built a Mesh Network Across the World | Data Slayer That escalated quickly... In my last video, I introduced #Reticulum—an open-source protocol that could allow anyone to build networks without relying on traditional internet infrastructure. But there was one big question left unanswered: how far can it actually go? In this video, I start with a simple setup inside my house and begin pushing the limits—testing communication across rooms, neighborhoods, and beyond using WiFi HaLow and #mesh networking. The goal is simple: see if it’s possible to send real messages across distance without depending on ISPs, centralized servers, or the internet as we know it. #Network#MeshNetwork

Meshenger is a P2P Android phone app that started out as a demo for community mesh networks. Meshenger started out as an idea to promote off the grid mesh networks and has now reached its initial goal. In this talk I will talk about the idea behind it, the story how it came to be and of course how it works. https://media.ccc.de/v/camp2023-57107-meshenger #P2P#Meshenger#Mesh#MeshNetwork#ChaosComputerClubBerlin #CCCde
