Here in Brazil, the debate about the telecom fund is in discussion. about the use of
spectrum CNs can use only if has a SLP license, that will cost in this year about R$20,00,
but we have the obligation to have an engeneer to sign the request of the license. with
license exempt we can use wifi and wired Technologies.
But we need to make regulatory incidence in Anatel to make asymmetrical regulation between
nonprofit and profit operators, including about interconnection in backbone and backhaul
of the comercial operators

Assunto: Re: [DC3] AlterMundi receives operator license
In our case, obtaining a licence mainly serves three purposes:
1) to be able to enter the discussion about how our administration should spend the
Universal Services Fund money
2) to be able to establish peering agreements in the current legal framework in
Argentina.
3) to participate in spectrum assignment processes.
So... in a way we are "playing by the rules" no without working to change some
of those rules in the meantime.
Cheers!

I understand that going against an incumbent is a
challenge. I'm just thinking of how to reframe the approach so as to minimize the
need to ask permission (or forgiveness). One issue is "spectrum" when Wi-Fi is
not enough. Or does one need permission to share Wi-Fi? Of course that varies as in places
where putting up an antenna requires permission. Another possible point is when
interconnecting with the existing networks.
But this is a longer discussion and I don't want to get to far off topic ... for
now. It's about the shift away from the traditional model of networking as service .

Bob -
This is a great question.
In many cases there are situations where regulators are reverse engineering current
regulatory schema to allow new entrants, new alternative networks. They often do this
carefully. In order to not upset the current market situation, but to push competition
and more neutral access...Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, India to some extent are doing this.
It really does not matter what the tech or spectrum band may be...on purpose...
Best,
Jane

Great news.
I do want to better understand when one does and does not have to license a network.
If you used WiFi to monitor crops I presume you don’t need a license? If you let your
neighbors share your router? When does licensing come into play?

Hi all,
I just wanted to share that we have finally been granted operator licence in
Argentina. This is the first licence for community networks in our country.
Here's the licence:

And this is the resolution that made it possible:

On another note, LibreRouter has been trending (top 10) in Hacker News all day:
