Re: Yes

I don't mind that they would cite "airport security" as the reason, so long as they can disclose specfically how their paid wifi access is "safe" while continental's free wifi is dangerous to "airport security".

Put up or shut up, I say.

It's a well-known fact that terrorists have lots of frequent-flier miles.

 It is a threat to airport security. The airport is looking for another revenue stream and this cuts into it. That would have been money that could have been used to make the airport more secure. Just like every time someone downloads a song the RIAA members loose a CD sale. As far as it being National security (a claim made by the airport administration), it the airport is insecure, the entire nation is.

Wow I can't believe I actually typed that with a straight face. Its very simple, its all about the money. Next thing we will hear is how it endangers children because pedos can use Continental's WI-FI for free.

Actually some groups have already fought wifi deployments based on the claim it endangers children by causing cancer. The deployments were in schools.

Re: Yes

I remember that, somewhere in Canada I believe. However the cancer argument won't work because Boston wants to start a competing service.

Schererville, IN		 I think its a joke that the airport wants to control the airline's security. The airline in my opinion should have full control off all security over the airport. The planes are the targets, not the food courts.
