It matters immensely. In the US, it's forbidden to use encryption in

Not for high encryption. 40 bits (WiFi) or lower is fine. As long as
the government have enough computing power to break it.

Check Part 15. It's illegal to use encryption on FRS links, amateur
radio links, SRD links, ...

Since I don't work in the 2.4GHz bands much (yet) I don't know what
special loophole is there for WEP/WPA.
