So what is Cablevision/Comcast going to do when when of their customers is sued by a porn troll because somebody piggybacked off their customer's wifi hotspot?
I highly doubt they issue a different IP address to the hotspot customers.
"1. The court, for example, determined that Messrs. Hansmeier, Steele, and Duffy were the plantiff's owners notwithstanding that plantiff's officer appeared at the hearing and was prepared, but not allowed to, testify as to plantiff's actual ownership."
Ummm...that's generally what happens when you choose to invoke your 5th Amendment rights. You lose your opportunity to testify. You think they would have taught that in a school somewhere, like maybe a law school.
So what do you think will happen at the FCC if all of these Over The Air stations go cable only? Think of how much spectrum will suddenly be made available for wifi and cell technologies.
