     #q "The absurdity is that the hack is at all necessary…. In a sane legal climate, the TV station would be thrilled that Aero wants to help them reach the dead pockets in their area at no cost to them and any suggestion that such helpful people… might owe them a fee would be laughed out of court." http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3608601&cid=43345809 !copyright
