Onlist for my reply.
It's also a good onlist discusion.
I have always believed that there is some way to combat someone who
intentionally causes interference with an existing network to cause harm
to the business or operation and or for financial gain.
I'm not a lawyer, so I can't even give any advice that would be worthy
of taking to court.
But, to me, it's just unbelievable that criminal case can't be brought
against the offending party. The same way the Ricco statutes were first
used against the mob and in other racketeering cases.
Statutory remedies for intentional acts. Many statutes provide remedies
for intentional harms. Civil rights statutes provide remedies for
intentional discrimination. Consumer fraud statutes provide remedies for
unlawful trade practices. The federal RICCO statute provides remedies
for victims of conspiratorial intentional conduct.

It's hard for me to accept that there are a few inconsiderate bullies
out there who would intentionally and maliciously jam other WISPs in
order to take over the customer base. I have recently seen probable
evidence of just such behavior. Because the FCC has no law (that I know
of) against this disgraceful behavior, legal recourse needs to be made
in state court and state laws do vary from state to state.
Would anyone who has fought against this type of unethical behavior
please share with me (offlist please) what State law(s) they used?
Thanks in advance,
