開啟無線機芯
開放無線運動係一個由互聯網自由主義者、公司、組織同技術人員組成嘅聯盟,佢哋致力開發新嘅無線技術,同埋啟發互聯網開放運動。我哋嘅目標係建立一種技術,令互聯網用戶可以輕鬆噉將佢哋嘅無線網絡分配畀客人同公眾,同時保持安全、保護私隱同保持存取質素。我哋亦都教緊世界開放無線嘅好處,幫助社會離開封閉網絡,轉向開放係預設嘅世界。我哋嘅努力遵循咗全國公認嘅電腦安全專家 Bruce Schneier 嘅意見,佢認為維護開放式無線節點係「基本禮貌」嘅問題:每當我講或者寫我自己嘅安全設定,最令人驚訝嘅一件事 —— 同埋最引起批評 —— 就係我喺屋企運行開放式無線網絡。冇密碼。冇加密。任何有無線功能嘅人,如果可以睇到我嘅網絡,都可以用佢嚟上網。對我嚟講,呢個係基本嘅禮貌。為客人提供上網有啲似提供熱同電,或者飲杯熱茶。我哋一齊努力倡導一個世界,令到更多人可以使用互聯網,同時更有效率噉使用頻譜。而我哋正努力反駁有關開放無線嘅神話(同埋面對真相),同時創造技術同法律先例,確保開放你嘅網絡係安全、私人同合法。
They seem to advocate and educate people about the benefits of trade-free wifi for everybody. No password, no encryption they say. Of course these open wifis are not all around the world so far, so one could argue that’s a trade, as you have to be at a certain place to access that open wifi, but I see that more like the language trade of an organization who provides say trade-free books and they are not available in your language. Important is: It’s trade-free if they don’t ask anything in return. And if that’s the case of these open-wifis then they’re trade-free.
