  > The liability isn't on the project regardless. OK random person on the internet whose word I should accept on a subtle legal question. Tools that assist in violating the law are often themselves classed as illegal or carry liability for the producers. For instance, tools that assist in bypassing copyright protections, and tools that assist in breaking locks to name but a few. Go ahead and quote me some rock solid precedent that would shield OpenWRT from any kind of liability if they wifi enabled distributed images with illegal configurations. A precedent that would apply in every jurisdiction mind you. > You're literally a 'why open source keeps sucking' quote machine. You made your case, the people actually doing the work clearly disagreed, so time to move on. Use your own time to make your perfect solution if it's that important to you, instead of demanding others do the same. OpenWRT already provides the image builder, so all you technically need to do is host it: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/additional-software/imagebuilder https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/additional-software/imag... Best of luck with that.
