[MLB-WIRELESS] A letter I got....

[evilbunny]

Hello Tyson,

it's a wireless network, surly they can afford airopeek mx, and a $50
skynet global card, wired networks may need intercepting, but when
it's wireless anyone virtually anywhere can intercept the traffic...

This is one major reason I'm all for unencrypted networks, apart from
the overhead thing, no person will then be under any illusion the
network is secured, even in the tiniest bit, and that security falls
up to them...

I'm quite happy to comply with any legal bodies to the extent of the
law, actually handing logs over willy nilly could get you sued for
breach of privacy... unless they sign disclaimers etc etc etc...

Any person with some resources could track anyone down anyone emitting
any radio signals, beauty of wireless is it can go fairly long
distances, also the down side is unintentional distances...

The only thing I will go out of my way over to clamp down on is kiddy
porn, the moment I get wind of that, boy you better run far and fast...
