Jun 17, 2012 at 4:10 | comment | added | Wesley | @JohnGardeniers The legality part of the question was totally inappropriate for the site and doomed it from the get-go. I tried to steer the conversation of this meta-topic away from that part, and specifically focus on the USA-specific part. Regardless, it seemed that the focus turned away from legality and more to the regional nature of it. I suppose we could substitute this wifi question with another question that was good in all other aspects except for its focus on a single country. | |

It was a question specifically about legality which just happened to have a WiFi context. I did toss up whether to vote OT or TL and just happened to choose the latter. | |
