Isn’t that the definition of off-grid?

Yeah, but not only. For example, I can build a private wifi network, and have my friends join their phones to it. Some bloke across the yard can open his own network, but the two networks will not communicate with each other. The two networks are off-grid, but are independent of each other.

This meshtastic thing sounds awesome! Crowd sourced off-grid network.
