Fine should have been much more...like a couple million.
At the end of the day there is nothing preventing them (Marriot or anyone else) from constructing screen rooms around any room or facility they choose and theres nothing the FCC could do about it because thats not considered jamming in their eyes and involves no active electronics. They dont oversee construction techniques.
That is so true. One of the reasons that white collar crime or fraud is often difficult to get a conviction. We have been involved in some pretty sophisticated frauds that are hard to understand if you are trained for it much less convince a jury how it happened.
