OK...  I guess I'll try at an answer. :)

I would assume that this is a "co-op" where a group of people buy 
bandwidth collectively and share it.  This could take many forms:

-a neighborhood wireless network
-a shared co-lo environment
-a shared co-lo environment where you use it as a point from which to drop 
standard WAN links

etc...
