I don’t get why having your own radio mesh when you can use existing ones with encrypted connections and not spend in hardware or having to carry stuff with you like in the 90s cellphones.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but how can you use existing ones without carrying a node?

By software . Example, Tailscale.
