Hotel Wi-Fi blocking: Marriott is bad
Couldn't the "rougue" operator turn the tables and use the same technique to shut down the official WiFi?

Yes, although chances are you'd need quite a lot of hardware depending on the scale of their network. Doing so would
also
be illegal, of course.

If the consensus in the comments here is correct, that Marriott's technique is legal because it doesn't create radio interference, then what law is the rogue operator breaking when using the same technique?
