I do not have cable. I have DirecTV satellite. I was only asking about the cable company from the standpoint of them possibly coming after me as a competitor, maybe citing some obscure law that I'm not aware of that would prevent me from taking advantage of Speakeasy's reseller plan. Also I have no connection or financial interest whatsoever with Speakeasy. An thanks for all the comments so far. Very enlightening.

Journal Journal: Legal/regulatory issues with providing wireless broadband

Journal by chrisleetn on Monday July 26, 2004 @11:23AM

I'm contemplating getting Slashdot (Speakeasy) 6Mbps broadband and offering wireless internet access to my neighborhood. Speakeasy even has a plan to allow this. What should I be aware of as far as legal/business/regulatory implications? I know I need to restrict obvious illegal stuff and probably p2p to be safe, but is the local cable modem company going to come after me for competing with them? Has anyone done this who can offer some insight?
