[dundee] Avoiding the digital economy act... don't secure your WIFI and peer with your ISP!

[Rick Moynihan]

Genius!  Loopholes in the digital economy act, mean you can
effectively reclassify yourself as a 'communications provider' by
peering with your ISP.  Whilst running an open wifi network means
plausible deniability and no agreement with the public means you're
not a 'service provider'.  This seems to effectively free you from
most of the recent legislation.

Are there any gotchas to this approach?

It looks like AAISP are a good ISP... does anyone use them?
