Sounds like generous bandwidth sharing isn't at all common around there, either. I have an open wireless base and I've encouraged my neighbors to use it if they wish. If bandwidth consumption becomes a problem, I'll install software to throttle it. It is much more in the tradition of the Internet to be open about sharing your connection, despite the need for managing such.
