The head of Germany's main IT trade body told the audience at the opening ceremony of the CeBIT technology exhibition that one in four of his countrymen are happy to have a microchip inserted for ID purposes."

In South Africa we actually have city wide wifi to some extent. You need to just about have a degree in Electrical Engineering and know how to hookup a real big-ass antenna to your pc before you can join the community. But it's grown pretty popular!

I can think of 2 possible options ...

1. Phone local isp's and take the query up with them, they might have had similar problems with other clients in the area and found feasible work a rounds.
2. Get a bunch of children with white boards and make them run between your home and your isp :P
