Hi Bill,

Right. So I think I was approaching it a different way, and I probably wasn’t 
clear enough about that. My question wasn’t meant to justify the response 
(deliberately booting people from non-Marriott SSIDs), it was about whether 
they had any legitimate right to claim that other wifi networks were impacting 
their own network’s performance, specifically based on the FCC’s position that 
a new transmitter should not disrupt existing operations. I was not in any way 
intending to say that their -response- was legitimate. 

Anyway, I think the departed horse has been suitably tenderized. Apologies for 
not being clearer, nothing to see here, etc.


Thanks,

-c
