The Wireless Commons
Manifesto:
“We have formed the Wireless Commons because a global
wireless network is within our grasp. We will work to define and
achieve a wireless commons built using shared spectrum, and able to
connect people everywhere. We believe there is value to an
independent and global network which is open to the public. We will
break down commercial, technical, social and political barriers to
the commons. The wireless commons bridges one of the few remaining
gaps in universal communication without interference from middlemen
and meddlers.”
of course, one person’s meddling middleman is another persons value-added service provider.
