    Power is actually easy to fix. Get a generator, pour fossil fuels, start it. (may cost you a bit, but its technically an option)

    Internet, well the ISPs are practicallt the internet, so you can’t just become your own ISP.

      Always wanted to make an alternate content distrobution system. Without being an ISP, your eather not allowed to encrypt it (http only for IP over radio) or the signals dont go far enough without mass adoption (wifi mesh network) It exists but Amazon and Apple etc own it and those frequencies are a warzone. Physical distrobution is mesured is days and weeks.

        A laser system mounted on rooftops that beam data back and fourth through neighborhoods?

        Honorable mention: Briar - Not an internet, but good for protest communication. You could relay messages via each device in the network and potentially reach across a country (hypothetically, if everyone installed it).
