That wouldn't work.

Mesh networks are short range low-capacity wireless. They'll work well enough in a large premises, especially if a good percentage have ethernet or fibre, to allow WiFi roaming on multiple airpoints with one name.

Iran also attempts to block satellite broadcast and Internet using a range of techniques.

The mass market use either Mobile or cabled internet (various technologies) all of which are government controlled, or can be in every country.
