The rural township that I live in is considering the possibility of providing municipal broadband; hence my interest in this report.

From a security point of view, I am skeptical about the ACLU's recommendation in this report to provide open WiFi access points. Due to the danger of MITM attacks, I don't think it's a good idea to promote the use of open APs.
