Wifi logging

Congress is considering forcing logging for all wireless routers. Including the ones in our homes.

I have handed my mobile to a perfect stranger when they needed to make a phone call. Others have done me the same favor. Thinking back, it seems to happen most often in airports when flight changes unexpectedly occur. Nobody asked for a name or wrote down a description. From time to time someone will even borrow my landline and I've never taken the time to log that.

Would someone please explain why I should have to log my devices and those of my guests?
