I assume that wireless security cameras have the same
problems as wireless access points?  If true "peeping
Toms" wouldn't have to get out of their cars.


True...48 Hours did a piece on it just the other night. Picked up live video
from 1/2 mile away with a Pringles can antenna while just driving around the
suburbs... Folks need to realize if the wireless transmissions aren't
encrypted and/or frequency hopping, they might as well be running an ISP or
TV station...
