Why (now) ?
TELCOs are already working towards providing this as a proprietary/restricted service in 5G (imminent in 2020).
We (the users) have the means, know-how and expertise today to create our own infrastructure.
Experience from successful projects (community wireless broadband, e.g. AWMN, Sarantaporo.gr).
