Just.... read those comments

but vijeho

Oh, not you specifically lol

lol

these armchair radio lawyers

at least the law keeps anarchists off our bands <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>

*HAM not worth it, i'll stick with my Comcast thankyouverymuch*

loik

do they realize they have an ip, a mac address?

Yeah, but at least you're allowed to encrypt

are you ban from encrypt on HAM

definitely

Even compression is frowned upon

They want you to transmit in plain text mostly

And these operators *love it!*

whats the open frontier then?

what about mesh networking

It doesn't exist

FCC has their dicks up everyone's asses

Hell, it's illegal to even *automate* any of your transmissions

well that blows a lot of cool ideas

Right?

But don't tell the hams that. They'll read you the riot act about "The spirit of the hobby!" or whatever

or list off FCC codes

well it is what it is, its radio waves

they are after all, right up there

having them rattle off the FCC codes before i do something stupid is helpful actually

Maybe the free market should shield their products better?

Thing is, you don't know if it's stupid

You'll never be able to find out

stupid as in illegal

eh, no victim no crime
