Re: Giving away WiFi to neighbors breaks TOS for most ISPs

It would be difficult to enforce the proposed federal legislation that was circulating the news recently. The one which would fine joe6pack with open access points 150k for potentially allowing child porn d/l porn and whatever else the gov't doesn't like.

People already pay for their internet connection. Billing-by-the-byte would either kill the internet, or seriously castrate it. That would be a very stupid model at this point.
