That's my point. How do you police it?
How many of us have a phone that has no web capabilities?
Will CDs & OOs check every cell phone carried in a contest/badge attempt?
We're gonna put public key encryption on the logger files but have no way of
preventing a pilot from getting state of the art weather data in flight?

Please note - I'm not arguing for increasing regulation, I'm arguing for
recognizing that honor is what all of our claims ultimately rest upon.

Check the 2005 rules for the U.S. on SRA, this isn't allowed.
