The last I knew, WISPs were still about half of UBNT's revenue. The problem doesn't just apply to WISPs. UBNT has now proven that they're willing to sue their customers over things unrelated to lack of payment.

I agree, that it probably won't make a huge dent in their overall sales, but it could very easily be larger than the amount of sales that they lost because of Elevate (which I suspect is very tiny... most people using Elevate were probably moving to ePMP anyway, it just made the process a lot easier). The only way that I can see this making sense is if they felt they had to do it to cover themselves with the FCC.

I would like to know what percentage of sales go to wisps but I bet it isn't all that enormous. Secondly, if you are a fan of them, this is probably a cheering squad opportunity.

I mean, any WISP out there, and Disti, using or selling Elevate, in my opinion would be pretty upset UBNT is trying to accuse them as ‘co-conspirators’. This is a very, very slippery slope UBNT has just tried to push everyone using Elevate down. Thank you, Ben Royer, Operations Manager Royell Communications, Inc.

They're also claiming copyright, DMCA, RICO, CFA, and software licenses violations. They also claim mail and wire fraud related to marketing the hacked firmware. In a nutshell, they refer to Blip and Winncomm as "co-conspirators" because they helped promote and distribute Elevate.
