No that exists, you just have a virtual router, like with Tor and i2p. You can run that on a raspberry pi with its own wifi and have an anonymous router.
I'm aware that exists at a higher level, but I meant at the literal routing level (level 3 on OSI if I remember it right). Then everything is anonymized by default, not just things you proxy over Tor/I2P/etc. Anonymity should be the default, not the exception.
A free & anonymous meshnet is just a pipedream of mine more than anything. Albeit I know there are versions of this idea, but they often exists within a tiny 1-5 mile bubble in some random state/country, and usually exist seperate from the clearnet.
