If you pay for an internet connection, you have the RIGHT to use it ANY way you want to. This ruling just codifies that right.
So if I have in internet connection it is my RIGHT to trade child pornography and send death threats?

Uhm, no. It only says a Landlord can't tell tennants they can't use wireless. It says nothing about sharing an Internet connection.

For once, the FCC ruled correctly. The UNLICENSED spectrum is just that, unlicensed. The spectrum is free for anyone to use. Why is this a bad thing for the **AA's you ask? Because now, as a homeowner, you can always say 'someone was using my wireless'. This means the **AssAsses don't have a legal leg to stand on. If I get 'sued' by the **AA's, I just say I have a free wireless access point. And as the FCC clearly states, I, the landlord, have no responsibility if someone uses my open wireless hotspot to download movies, mp3's, software, etc. This is a GREAT ruling for all those who believe the internet should be free for all to use, as they see fit. This is a great ruling which will ultimately strike down the illegal TOS that the megacorps try and force people to agree to. If you pay for an internet connection, you have the RIGHT to use it ANY way you want to. This ruling just codifies that right.
This is a huge quote, but I needed to show it to make my point. This ruling has NOTHING to do with the RIAA/MPAA and a defence. This has NOTHING to do with the TOS that you agree to when you sign up with an ISP.

WHAT this does mean, is that if say you live in an apartment building, or you lease space in an office building, the landlord can not force you to use their wireless system, and can not stop you from putting out WAP's for access.

NO MATTER WHAT you are still responsible for your network, and what it does.

Are you that twisted? Since I pay for my car, do I have the right to run you over without any consequences? The FCC's ruling doesn't say you can steal music/movies or distribute child porn, but you conveniently interpreted it that way.
Putting downloading a few new tunes in the same category as downloading child porn is pushing it.

Perhaps you should take your own advice.

Avoid really dumb remarks and stay on topic, since you saw fit to do neither, sir.

Megacorps? The "megacorps" (being the airlines here) won a huge victory here! They are now able tell the eeeeeeeeevil government (Logan Airport) to go screw itself with regards to Wi-Fi regulation.
