There is no unified policy governing non-ham traffic on

of us is bound to the terms and conditions of the respective national agency
that issued our ham radio licenses. This is somewhat consistent with the
mishmash of national regulations governing the global internet traffic.
Also, most (if not all) amateur radio licenses weren't crafted with the
internet in mind, and hence they don't provide clear cut guidance.
Therefore, it is our responsibility as gateway operatorw to balance
advancing the state of the art while maintaining compliance with our
licenses.

The last policy statement I had from FCC (admittedly, a few years ago)
was "that which is not expressly prohibited is permitted". In other
words, be liberal, we'll let you know when we think something is
crossing the line.
