Jessie Atkin posted a blog on Digital Landing. Read about how the Japanese have figured out how to block other people from using your wireless.
At school we all share the same wireless network. Our internet can be accessed in dorms and in class (if you have a password that is). What about the average wi fi user? How do you protect your investment?
Japan has released wi fi paint, it basically blocks hangers on from accessing the internet you are paying for. Convenient for honest apartment dwellers who do pay for their own wireless. It’s an unfortunate development for poor city interns and the like, but it is pretty ingenious. In this economy I’d hope we could all learn to just share, but I can understand not wanting to. If only city wide wireless was available for real.
