He probably doesn't need to as he technically isn't the actual service
provider. The company FON, who supplies the router is- they collect the
payments and kick-back a small commission to the router's owner.
It's a great idea (for FON.) I wished I thoufght of it first- they aren't
in the WiFi business, they're in the "sell suckers some branded routers"
business, and according to their website's maps, they've sold a few thousand.
