Social networks are enabling new forms of peer-to-peer telecommunications by turning consumers into internet service providers (ISPs) through technologies like open WiFi networks. This allows for low-cost or free internet access globally by sharing excess bandwidth on personal routers. Companies are developing new revenue models by allowing consumers to earn money from their home WiFi networks or access free WiFi while traveling. Regulatory issues need examination as these models blur traditional telecom network boundaries with consumer-provided connectivity.
