I don't know what "your own airwaves" is suppose to be. The electricity being used was already going to be used for your own use, so there is no additional cost

  > I don't know what "your own airwaves" is suppose to be. Sorry, I meant it's using channels/spectrum and creating interference. Admittedly less of a concern than power IMO, since a stranger could easily broadcast their own network too—they're open airwaves. > The electricity being used was already going to be used for your own use, so there is no additional cost to you. But that's not true, is it? Surely, if there's someone else using my router to download and upload data, I'd expect that router is going to be using more power and increasing my electricity bill by a small amount.
