Re: [DC3] DC3 Digest, Vol 36, Issue 4

Many, most, have taken shape from electric co-ops. Cannot municipalities be convenient instruments of their communities to provide services? Not that it’s superior, I’m just looking for defined boundaries. Zero gov’t? All volunteer? Revenue streams? Rights of way issues? Apologies, I feel like I must sound like a newbie. Allow me to lurk quietly. Observe and maybe learn.

"Community Networks" has been used for a long time in relation to municipal networks in the USA. Those networks usually have very little to do with what we in DC3 call community networks. > > > > > On October 9, 2018 1:51:22 PM GMT-03:00, Luca Belli &lt;luca.belli(a)fgv.br&gt; wrote: >> Thanks for sharing! >> >> Interesting article but I think the author could have been more >> precise/explicit in stressing which networks are community networks >> (i.e. led by the community in a bottom-up fashion) and which ones are >> local ISPs sponsored/organized by local governments in a ?traditional? >> top-down fashion. >> >> Best >> Luca >> >> >> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio.jpg] >> >> Luca Belli, PhD >> Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation >> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_tel.jpg]+55 >> 21 3799 5763 t @1lucabelli<https://twitter.com/1lucabelli> >> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_direito_rio_map.j… >> de Botafogo, 190 13? andar >> Botafogo - Rio de Janeiro, RJ - CEP: 22250-900 >> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_email.jpg] >> luca.belli@fgv.br<mailto:luca.belli@fgv.br> >> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/2018/direito_rio/assinatura/fgv_ass_url.jpg]inter… >> <https://internet-governance.fgv.br/> >> >> >> >> >> De: dc3-bounces(a)listas.altermundi.net >> [mailto:dc3-bounces@listas.altermundi.net] Em nome de dc3(a)bob.ma >> Enviada em: ter?a-feira, 9 de outubro de 2018 13:44 >> Para: 'Dynamic Coalition on Community Connectivity ' >> &lt;dc3(a)listas.altermundi.net&gt; >> Assunto: Re: [DC3] More Than 750 American Communities Have Built Their >> Own Internet Networks >> >> Are there any communities that didn?t then bring in an ISP to prevent >> them from using it in order to bill them for connectivity?
