Recently over at ChurchIT, we have been having a bit of a discussion regarding WiFi networks, namely Open vs Secure.
I am personally someone who is very happy to have open WiFi networks, but for me, that is probably for a couple of reasons:
1) I travel a lot, and with the kind of work that I do I need to stay connected. Right now I am typing this blog post in a McDonalds a few hundred miles from my home.
2) I have never had a run-in with the police in regard to an open WiFi setup.
I don’t know how things are in the USA, but here in England, it is seriously difficult to find an open WiFi network that is easy to connect to. Even the major brands and stores who offer “Free WiFi” make it such a pain to connect.
