It’s generally accepted that an unlicensed device must accept interference from any source, and may not cause harmful interference to any licensed service; for example, Weiser and Hatfield explain that Part 15 “safeguards only the rights of licensed spectrum users and provides no protection to commons access users” in their 2005 paper Policing the Spectrum Commons.
I don’t read it that way. Unlicensed devices shouldn’t cause harmful interference to other unlicensed devices, either.
