Btw you can suggest them the Briar messenger app. It can send messages via nearby peoples phones if they also have Briar. So if enough people installed it, a city could have it's own messaging network even when the official one is down

Nice, I don't think I'll be able to convince the whole city to install it though :-)

Maybe you could suggest it to people who organize protest

Those "briar clients" still use the "same" internet...

It could work if clients/nodes would exchange data using other channel (lora/bluetooth/etc)
