Last month Kim Dotcom released MegaChat, a knew end-to-end encrypted video and audio chat service. Which is said to be better than Google Hangouts or Skype. Just couple of days ago, Kim is tweeting about MegaNet, which would be immune to global mass surveillance.
You become the #MegaNet.
It takes the power away from governments and put it back in the hands of the online users. He also assured that battery drainage won’t be a problem and It won’t rely exclusively on mobile networks at launch. But the more powerful phones become the more data & traffic they will carry.
The blockchain will play an important role and battery drain won't be an issue with hundreds of millions of phones carrying #MegaNet.

You'd be surprised how much idle storage & bandwidth capacity mobile phones have. #MegaNet will turn that idle capacity into a new network.

Few similar projects
Maidsafe
The key part of MaidSafe is its SAFE network, powered by its participants’ computers, which means, instead of specialized servers, data are stored and distributed by a network of internet-connected computers.
Project Maelstrom
First step to truly distributed web?
If an ISP can’t identify where traffic is originating from, then it can’t suppress certain sites accessed from a browser like Maelstrom
ZeroNet
ZeroNet uses a combination of BitTorrent, a custom file server and a web based user interface to do so and manages to provide a pretty usable experience. The main goal of this project is to host websites and provide anonymity for each site’s owner.
