gollark: I think stuff kind of works if you just let nodes set their own prices (except you are still incentivized to jam people randomly, for arbitrage or otherwise), but that's just the regular internet.

gollark: (with you as C, and with B unable to reach A directly now)

gollark: I think you could make that work.

gollark: Also, I meant sticking your node between A and B and just using A's connection for backhaul for B, not providing your own connection.
