Now here's the .90 cent question: If ISP's are not liable for the content across them, and cannot be held liable. And you run an Open WIFI network... Aren't you in effect an ISP Albeit a free one? And if you are an ISP, then wouldn't you, not be liable for content sent across your network. ------------------------------------------------------------------ "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk [mailto:full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk] Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2005 4:28 PM To: full-disclosure () lists grok org uk Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] Wi-fi.

My company has made a conscious decision to leave our WiFi open to
visitors, while our internal machines connect via IPSec on the open airwaves.
A drive-by would show the open nature of our WiFi, but wouldn't
immediately tell you that we've secured our business fairly well. but what if someone uses your unsecured network to download copyrighted material (just mp3s are enough :->) or to send porn? An unsecured WiFi may have serious legal consequences. And to come back on the original topic: These legal consequences may be good arguments to convince customers that they need to get their network secured. Ciao Marcus -- Hail Eris!
