Google top the list in my opinion. If google took over the cyber world I wouldn't be concerned. If Microsoft took over the cyber world... Well let's face it, no one would let them. Their stuff is too buggy, even in their 'stable' releases.
I must admit, although I have much respect for the eBay operation, I would certainly go straight to Google to find an item for sale before going to eBay. Likewise, if Google released a 'Widget" counterpart I would scrap the Yahoo! one.
My point being that Google is in everybody's good books and I'm convinced that whatever they decide to release next will do well. I have never felt that Google was trying to 'take over', it's just that their tools are so good that everybody uses them.
Again this topic reviews the insecurities of wireless technology. We don't need a famous mathematician to tell us this. I have said it before, if data is so critically classified, don't transmit it across public air space.
There isn't any problem with this unless the tag claims to be secure. Also, as the report says, if the tags are going to be made cheaply available, they can't necessarily promise security. No doubt the communication could include the latest security technologies, but there would be an associated cost.
Still missing the point. Wireless is less manageable than wired media. You can't tell me that encrypted wireless is preferable over encrypted wired in a security concious environment.
And yes the clear cladded wire runs outside of the walls where it is completely visible.
You've misunderstood my comment. Wireless uses free air space, effectively open to anyone, and therefore has a greater potential to be hacked. Wires are a lot more manageable. Hence why the FBI use wires with clear cladding.
Wireless will only dominate where data security is not a real issue.
Wireless is still too insecure and will always be less secure than wired networks, regardless of the encryption protocols used.

Not necessarily a good idea for use with sensitive corporate data...

A big deal made from nothing, in my opinion.

Clearly everybody has thought about the same thing once before, including myself. Some nice replies there which reinforce my personal opinions.
Never being satisfied helps motivate you to progress.
