thanks for commenting...........

I have one little concern , here in germany (maybe somewhere else ? )   
we have a law called "Störerhaftung"

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/St%C3%B6rerhaftung

i cant find a proper translation for it ( disturber  
responsibility  ? ) , but in short it means that the owner of a wifi/  
hotspot or whatever its called
when you share an ip with others, you are responsible !! , so if  
someone downloads mp3s, porn, the owner could be be impeached.
and it happend several time here in germany.   >>>>  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wardriving

I think thats the reason   http://fon.com  changed their concept, so  
you need to be "registred" to join any network
so your not annonymous nomore................

IMHO this affects all open wifi networks /mesh like freifunk  
whatever...........

i am not sure how we could  handle  this problem, technicaly.

greetings
