Our Strategy vis a vis ISPs

Our strategy vis a vis ISPs around the world is the same as the one in Spain. We want to team up with an ISP in a market and allow only that ISP to sell their DSL/Cable services with FON inside. All other want to be foneros of course can download our soft, buy the right routers if they don´t have a linux enable wifi access point and get going with FON. But we think it´s easier to team up with one ISP who will make this simple claim to the potential customer. With our competitor you pay 30 euros per month for bandwidth and you get bandwidth at home. With us you pay the same 30 euros, but you get bandwidth all over the world for free! We have FON INSIDE.

hello. The idea is cool but in Italy, no ISP will do a deal with Fon; actually in Italy only ISPs can sell wifi. The only company that might sign a deal could be Fastweb because their sales are not so good and they are just selling ADSL like many other providers but they were supposed to sell fiber accesses so people are disappointed and now just see them as 'another' ISP. Another possibility is to work at European Union level and convince Spain (the most advanced country at the moment in developing new businesses as FOM) to propose a law by which wifi is no longer illegal in the EU. When this is done, Italy and other countries will have to follow.

The traditional thinking has been that the position of an Internet Service Provider equated with that of the traditional telecommunications carrier - that it was merely a conduit that passively allowed for the transmission of data and was therefore not responsible for the nature, or character of that data.
