Alternative to the internet

Hi All

As you know or heard some guys are trying to destroy the Internet with the ACTA treaty ....i am thinking what alternative we can create ? so that no internet provider (ISP) ,state,corporation etc could not control that alternative and how can we can create this alternative?

I am thinking we need something that could work on radio waves ( with radio waves the signal is to low + we need a transmitter etc ,other legal problems ... and also can we convert radio waves to binary code and back ?) or we can use a wireless solution with a small gadget witch you connect to your pc ,laptop etc with the help of a usb cable...

Once this device is connected to your pc,laptop.... it will transform your pc in to a server / client in the same time to work as a p2p or hotspot but without the need to connect to the internet. It must be easy to build ,witch cheap parts etc so everybody can afford one.. this way i think you will not pay internet subscription and many more benefits .Hope you get were i am going...

So what solution do you think you have for a alternative to the internet from a scientifically and technical point of you ? ( no stupid answers like google,books ,library... please,i am trying to gather ideas...)

Well, you can do a private Wi-Fi network secured with Pringles cans (you think I'm joking). Or you can set up laser transceivers - effectively fiber-optics without the cable. Unfortunately, ANYTHING can upset the signal. Anything. Like squirrels. Rain. Kites. Obese persons on ladders. Anything.
