EFF To Unveil Open Wireless Router For Open Wireless Movement

hypnosec writes A new movement dubbed the Open Wireless Movement is asking users to open up their private Wi-Fi networks to total strangers – a random act of kindness – with an aim of better securing networks and facilitating better use of finite broadband resources. The movement is supported by non-profit and pro-internet rights organizations like the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), Mozilla, Open Rights Group, and Free Press among others. The EFF is planning to unveil one such innovation – Open Wireless Router – at the Hackers on Planet Earth (HOPE X) conference to be held next month on New York. This firmware will allow individuals to share their private Wi-Fi to total strangers to anyone without a password.

You better not use the Internet for homework, because effectively
- your professor is sending you a request,
- you fulfill it using your own bandwidth,
- you give back the answer to the professor.

Exactly like opening up your router.

With latency that can be measured using an hour glass...
