We uses resources from CAIDA and we also contribute to their projects (e.g. mesh stations can run spoofers for CAIDA with the permission of their owners).
Disclaimer:
We agree with the EFF that the patent system is broken, but currently (in year 2023) there is no good practical and realistic alternative, so we have obtained patent protection to prevent exploitation by the big techs.
We respect EFF's Defend Innovation attempt to fix the patent system, but we believe Citizen Synergy's Retrospective Reward system will be able to protect and fuel innovation substantially better than any legislation.
