Compensate those who provide open WiFi because it causes a positive externality. Open access points can easily be identified by the same technique as wardriving. Discovering the owner of an access point, i.e., who to compensate, is trickier. Should the internet be reengineered? Or perhaps those who wish to be compensated can make themselves easy to identify.
Consider someone taking someone else's WiFi signal and rebroadcasting it so the range gets increased, i.e., providing a wireless repeater. Who should be compensated, in what proportion?
