Title: Re: [WISPA] WHY?
Right, start trying to charge BB for that! Next, they will require you to ‘buy’ an ISP license to operate to ‘pay you’ your co-lo fees. :-)

I don't know that I can even do that much, but I agree, it is not for me to fund data collection for the government. If they want data collected, I can make a switch port available and charge them co-location fees to house a system they provide.  As long as there is a law or court order, I have no problem with that.  Otherwise, the data collected will get thrown out of many courts anyway.  No probably cause to be watching.
