So I did a deep drive, and found a web version of the book I presume they're referring to, giving this definition;
"A network state is a highly aligned online community with a capacity for collective action that crowdfunds territory around the world and eventually gains diplomatic recognition from pre-existing states.

So ... it's a distributed diplomatic entity, whose population consists entirely of landlords?

I just read @sarenaulibarri 's #solarpunk #novel Another Life. I really enjoyed it. Like the best solarpunk stories, it focuses on a close-knit, supportive community, one that is complex and subtly flawed, but deeply hopeful and inspiring.
When the story begins, the community is well formed, with a compelling origin story that shapes its culture and social structure. It has a form of communalism that is pretty well thought through, both in the internal distribution of resources and effort, and in the community's external relations. But the community isn't finished evolving, as real living ones never are.
