Great idea except...
Wouldn't work unless you own some satellites to beam directly to the receiving systems, because if any building is used or any public utility within the continental US and out to the 50 mile border at sea, it falls under Federal tax laws.

Then you would also have to ensure that the main web source stations were not in US controlled territories as well, you know so they can provide the uplink/downlink to the satellite systems you would have to use.

So wonderful idea, no way it would work.
