I remember trying to build one of these in Argentina and the CNC (our FCC) shutting it down. As it turns out the government-sanctioned telco duopoly (telefonica/telecom) not only had rights to all landlines but also the frequency where Wifi works meaning that by providing this service I was infringing their rights.

Back then I was still in highschool and didn't have any idea of all this cronyism, but now its obvious the Argentine system is disruption-proof, the bad way though.
