[ ... ] OK. Here is a project suggestion: Remember the old days when Spectrum and Commodore computer software was broadcasted through radio to computer users? This system could be brought to this day using latest tech in coding. This would make it possible to make forbidden webpages available to countries who restrict the access. People would need a simple and cheap radio receiver, and plug it to the audio card. The signal coding would differ from communication coding systems in that sample rate is limited to 44100 Hz and that audio has more signal level resolution. I invented this "Radio Internet" several years ago because Internet costed (and still costs) too much and because the transfer direction is mostly from Internet to home for personal users. The idea of using this tech to broadcast Internet to China became a few months ago after BBC World's Click Online show reported about the Internet retrictions in China. With non-cheap radio tech the transfer rate would not be limited to the audio card properties, but simple and cheap might be better when it comes to the freedom spreading.
