Don't be lulled into complacency by a private network: all it takes is one thumb-drive or rogue AP and you have a back door. Private networks reduce but do not eliminate attackable surface.

An Internet kill switch is a nightmare. We can't even figure out how to run a relay radio system for national emergencies..

This is more of news amusement rather than news worthy. Question here should be how much of this is another effort to get a "kill switch" type bill back.
