That makes it rather easy to get new ideas for products, if a bunch of developers start using their wifi lol


What?


If you control the Wifi setup you can see the traffic passing through it, easy way to pick up ideas if a developer happens to be working on a project using it. Not saying that Google would do this, but they have done this in the past with streetview cars picking up and listening in on unprotected public Wifi connections


Your ISP could do the exact same thing, except SSL, etc., etc., etc.
