Wi-Fi blocking rules apply to hospitals, FCC says

In its enforcement advisory relating to Wi-Fi blocking, the Federal Communications Commission said "no hotel, convention center, or other commercial establishment or the network operator providing services at such establishments may intentionally block or disrupt personal Wi-Fi hotspots on such premises." Asked if the prohibition extends to healthcare facilities, an FCC spokesman confirmed to the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI), that yes, that was the case.
