So my objections to this are 2 fold.
1. I don't want strangers sitting outside of my house where I have children because it is a free and easy hotspot to get wifi. I can just see a row of cars out front with people lined up to watch youtube and netflix on their phone.
We already pay for libraries with our taxes. Why don't they go to the library? Or the coffehouses? Or the growing pool of companies that offer free wifi?
2. I need my bandwidth for what I do for a living and for my entertainment activities. I am already supporting my household's consumption. I don't want to compete with strangers when I need throughput.
What makes other people special enough to be able to get away with using a service that I pay for? How is that improving humanity? The service is already provided for free in many areas.
