bobs, 802.11

as long as security keeps sucking in 802.11 land, I'll never think of it as a finished product.

use wep! mac filter! disable ssid broad cast! use wpa!

do all of those things, and still a fairly easy crack, and most likely much easier for those that don't care.

I live in an apartment and just last night found and started surfing on some neighbor's wifi. first time I'd done that. that's plain irresponsible (not of the consumer, well, him too, but of the) of the manufacturers/standardsbody/whoever that kit is shipped in such a way that it's an opt-out to share your connection with everyone in the world instead of an opt-in to doing so.
