San Fran Mayor Declares Wireless for All

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the throwing-down-the-gauntlet dept.

arvind s. grover writes "San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom stated yesterday in his state of the city address that every San Francisco resident will have free wireless internet access. They don't seem to have much set up yet, and no proposal was laid out for the installation of access points in every nook and cranny of the city. I wonder what vendor is going to get that contract...You might be better off finding a wireless node using NodeDB or this oddly-titled site: cheesebikini."

    That's so wrong, I'm not even going to reply to it.

    No matter where you go here you usually don't have too much trouble finding unsecured wireless networks, often named "linksys" or something similar... =)
