| My thoughts Once again we try to contain something that cannot be contained. The very nature of wireless technology is to be free. Just look at radio, and "free" TV. We keep seeking to have the world more and more interconnected, and we've developed a consumer technology that is a step closer to achieving that goal. What do we do with it? We limit it. WiFi in it's very nature leans to being free and open, not semi-open. We've imagined a world where one can access any information, anywhere. That is starting to become a reality, yet we feel the need to confine it. By limiting access, we may only end up limiting ourselves.
Now, this view may be somewhat extreme. The inverse view being "Since I paid for it, I want to control it." as in, the very nature of humans. But maybe its time to overcome the rules we've imposed on ourselves. |

This is the most ridiculous post I've seen in ages, you tree-hugging moron. The only thing wireless is meant to be free of is, you guessed it, wires. It a damned convenience, nothing more. The fact that some people grab hold of something so simple and turn it into some grand scheme, and analogy of life, is sad. As for your accessing any information anywhere idea, send me a bit of information, your credit card numbers. Oh, so you didn't really mean ANY information, did you.
