Legal requirements can be funky. Back in ~2007 or so I considered doing my own WISP just to get any reliable internet that wasn't making 300 baud modem look nice (put enough latency on telnet and it will look like that). Turned out that if we wanted to cross a community (smallest administrative region in Poland), to be fully legal we might have had to submit war and disaster preparation plans to Ministry of Defense. For cooperation with military and other services, just in case.
