Metro-wide networks built using mesh networking technologies with inter-city peering links could some day make reliance on the existing Internet infrastructure.  You wouldn't get Facebook but you could still route e-mail, transfer data files and transact using bitcoin.

This is something I wouldn't be surprised to see within the next twenty years if net-legislation continues down the path it's on.



This is something that I expect to see in the next five years regardless.  It's already being done in many cities.
