Our motivations The DIY way

I

Doing things right: IPv6, no CG-NAT, BCP38, RPKI. . .

Proximity: participative approach, building resilient networks

Respecting privacy (personal data, network traffic)

I

Controlling the infrastructure (not always possible)

I

Network neutrality

FDN Federation & DIY ISPs

Network neutrality Our core value

Network neutrality is fundamental for users: the ISP must not be a gatekeeper.

In practice: no incentive to breach network neutrality I

no commercial relation

I

little congestion (invest in infrastructure)

When breaching neutrality is really needed, involve the users (e.g. congested radio local loop)
