No mention of starlink? Even if the internet is entirely down locally your packets could be routed to the other side of Earth before making it to the internet.

Starlink is much simpler for the average consumer to setup than what this article suggests.

Sure, as a backup to your regular internet it could work, and can be shared with your community. However, the objective is to be independent from any infrastructure. The US has boycotted the ICC in the Netherlands already, if the ICC were to arrest American or Israeli war criminals they may choose to expand that boycot to the whole country, which includes Starlink access.
