  The internet's key points of global control lie in the hands of a few people,
primarily private organizations based in the United States. These control
points, as they exist today, raise structural risks to the global internet's
long-term stability. I argue: the problem isn't that these control points
exist, it's that there is no popular governance over them. I advocate for a
localist approach to internet governance: small internets deployed on municipal
scales, interoperating selectively, carefully, with this internet and one
another.
