Hi,

For those with an Internet connection, it usually isn't a big deal to
add a torrent download or two and have that run in the background, you
can limit speeds if you need to.  USB sticks cost virtually nothing
these days and a couple of dollars postage isn't much to help someone out.

When I download torrents of Debian install disks, or any thing else for
that matter, I leave the torrent running for a while, this helps others too.

An open access point with Linux ISO files wouldn't interest me, unless I
knew exactly who was running it and that it was trustworthy; but it's
not so bad if you verify the ISO files properly first.  It's been too
easy, even with Linux [1] (_might_ be okay now, depends on your distro
and setup) to cause havoc with a rogue USB stick or similar as well.

Cheers
A.
