Can the name of the network be "Password is password"?

<<Yeah. the name of the network could also be "FuckTheState">>,  he claims.

I think it's unfortunate that people can't "automatically" share some of their (otherwise unused) WiFi capacity.  Many people would do this, as long as a few restrictions are in place: 1.   A person sharing shouldn't be legally liable for anything done;  2.  The owner gets to use "all" of the capacity when needed; the external user only gets space when available.   3.   The IP addresses of "his" use and that of the "external" use be unrelated in any way.  

Interestingly, Comcast/Xfinity has a somewhat automatic system of this kind:  Boxes are called "gateways" and, in effect, have two WiFi routers:  One for the owner and the other for anyone else.  (However, to use the other side, you need to be a subscriber somewhere or have his password/permission.)  For news of an objection to this, see:  https://www.fastcompany.com/3039682/comcast-was-sued-for-quietly-making-your-homes-internet-part-of-the-sharing-economy
