What about everyone else's networks? I've seen WiFi performance fall dramatically as more networks are installed in neighbouring offices and flats.
Does The Cloud's high density network have a similar negative impact on the performance of everyone else's private networks? Have they effectively hijacked a free resource for commercial gain? Do Ofcom have any rules about this?
I think it is fundamentally wrong to make money from a public resource while degrading everyone's free use of that resource, and I can't see how The Cloud can provide a service without doing this. There is limited space in the WiFi band and they are taking a chunk of it away.
