"Below are just a few of the reasons to join and support NYC Mesh:
- We are building an infrastructure commons that is accessible to all New Yorkers
- We are a neutral network that does not block or discriminate content or throttle data
- We do not collect personal data
- We’re committed to bridging the Digital Divide by connecting underserved communities in New York online
- We stand in opposition to the telecom oligopoly in New York of Verizon, Optimum and Spectrum
- We are building a resilient emergency community network (for the next hurricane)
- We are decentralized, with no single point of failure as an organization or network
- We believe in building community and supporting highly localized websites and services
- We offer public wi-fi hotspots across the network
- We allow for fast uploads as well as downloads, so members of our community can serve content and services rather than only consume them from centralized hosts"
