You shouldn't publicly post your EIN on your web page. It is similar to a business SSN, while it is not truly private, there is more you can lose by having it publicly display then just redacting it all-together.
Non profit EINs are public knowledge. Perhaps they are non-profit?
This is free broadband? How is that sustainable?
I am interested in this because I have recently been working on simulation studies of large Ad Hoc networks where we look at the B.A.T.M.A.N protocol. It was originally built for use in the Freifunk (https://freifunk.net/en/) network in Germany which is similar to Project Waves.
Its fascinating what a bunch of nerds with a mission can put together.
I'm curious what sort of bandwidth they supply? Their suggested monthly donation of $20/mo is quite reasonable (less than what I pay!), and presumably that subsidizes those less able to pay. (Though, I presume they wouldn't mind a larger donation, if one made one.) (I'm not in the Baltimore area, so I can't really make use, but this is a neat-sounding project.)
