The unsigned editorial at the Boston Globe says the FCC should favor Continental's side of the dispute: The Globe argues that Massport's contentions about interference and other problems are unfounded because "Massport would be foolish to assign important security information to these frequencies, whose chief purpose is to facilitate public access to the Internet." Right on. The Globe doesn't mention that no other airport in the known world is attempting Massport's appropriation of a federal role in spectrum policy regulation.
The Globe also notes that Boston's Partners HealthCare system, a hospital operator in the area, is supporting Continental's efforts to run its own Wi-Fi network at Boston-Logan. The healthcare operator worries that a shift of control of Wi-Fi's spectrum from the FCC to property owners would reduce a tenant's ability to set its own security policies.
