I read in the news Google had started a project over San Francisco, giving free internet! (I think I will move over there soon) lol. But just imagine all the hacking that will take place over wifi. I think it teamed up with Earth Link to provide this free service.

But eventually wifi will be made safer than it its at present hence here will be no need to worry about hacking, you just enjoy the free internet access

True, but wouldn't there be an issue of bandwidth? I mean wifi don't have the ability to handle tons of user, thats if everyone decided to go wifi.

Maybe the wifi in SF is only in select locations. I know McDonalds has wifi also but only in select locations. I know a city and a restuarant can not be compared. But I think it is only in select areas. And I know that the public library system in Los Angeles has wifi. So I do believe it would only cover certain areas. Not the entire city.

Just a thought maybe if they do control where they place the wifi in SF. Maybe it is a way to control tourists to attract them to certain parts of the city. For those who have wifi.

In the city where I live we have certain wifis in restaurant and certain public places also. I use it quite often and have had no problems so far. No sites shutting down etc.

From TV and CNN. I read from time to time, but usually they announce it and plan on telling the public later on.

CNN. The online article right? If yes. Still have the link?

**wirlwind1** · 04-26-2006, 09:18 AM

It was a while back; I don't know where they put it in their archive.

They are definetely going to have some hacking problems with that. A good way to advertise their company, if people haven't heard of it already.

I doubt they will ahve much problem personally. Google have some great personeel and programmers and would do someting like this if there was a chance of hacking...
