[Talk Proposal] Replacing BGP in 4 easy steps about community HOT 4 CLOSED

Great summary of the project plan, generally speaking. The problem is illustrated effectively, but I don't think a specific solution is proposed, rather the steps necessary to foster the right environment for a solution. At a high level, surely decentralization is that solution, but routing strategies will vary. This a great experiment because we will see if capitalism, ie. the free market, can solve this problem. This is a question mark for me because one of the key flaws of capitalism is the rise of monopolies which tend to act as a centralizing agent. However, if it does serve as an impetus to solving this problem, then it makes a good argument for capitalism as an agent of efficiency, thus satisfying the efficient market hypothesis. Other projects I've seen in this space tend to not have as many milestones in their plan. They tend to think they can sell networking hardware to enough people to spin up some kind of network. But, node density is clearly and issue for most, because they tend to be short on value proposition and market reach. Perhaps the VPN marketplace is the growth hack these networks need to reach a larger scale, because the general public isn't aware of what BGP is or what it's problems might be. But, these days, VPN's seem to be trending, so it's a smart play to go that way. 'Nuff said.
