+1 ,  I think this seems a little like what Aral at Small-tech is doing 
 to do https://small-tech.org/

Building the small web https://small-tech.org/research-and-development/

"We’re building the Small Web.

In a digital network, public space is not a place; it is the 
interconnections between individually-owned and controlled places.

The Small Web is a public space comprised of places you own and control."

So there is a real movement to give users back control,
