Government Use of WiFi Not Secure
Terremoto writes "A Congressional report indicates that the use of WiFi by government agencies is being done with little regard for security. The article says, "Government Accountability Office investigators were able to pick up Wi-Fi signals from outside all of the six agencies they tested, and they were able to find examples of unauthorized activity at all six as well.""
such as admin.
The story title seems wordy, heres the short version.
Someone set us up the bomb, so shine we are!
You watch the government today and realize that the current mode is now to get what you can. GWB is busy getting his for he and his buddies (haliburton is getting the bulk of the iraqi oil). They are squashing all attempts at stopping anybody from gripping (the gal from the DOD who compaigned about the haliburton deal, Edmunds has a gag order (www.justacitizen.org), a traitor is allowed to remain hidden in the white house, etc.). But it is not limited to the white house. Look at Tom Delay, Campbell of Colorado (who resigned rather than be under heavy investigation, but it looks like indictments may still come down), etc. And while I do not mention the dems here, there are plenty of them who are doing there best to get as much as they can.
Sadly, I really do not blame those that come in through the back door when so many are simply stealing from the front door.
I prefer the "u" in honour as it seems to be missing these days.
Grad students like me are in for big funding!. Yes I don't mind getting paid for setting mac filtering and wep key.
