@movq@www.uninformativ.de @mckinley@twtxt.net I believe the resurgence in availability of municipal WiFi is largely driven by the surveillance capabilities it offers. Every person who has WiFi enabled on their phone can be tracked throughout the city as their phones ping various base stations; a lot of folks aren’t aware of just how much information can be slurped out of a phone that isn’t locked down just from its WiFi pings. I know this happens in Toronto, and I was familiar with a startup in Massachusetts that based its business model on this very concept. I can only assume it’s widespread in the US if not throughout the Western world.

The Circle
Some years ago, I started reading the novel “The Circle” by Dave Eggers. I never finished reading it, but today I watched the movie. It has an important message about privacy, transparency and surveillance and shows that there’s a thin line in-between those. I can definitely recommend watching it, although I sometimes wasn’t impressed by the acting. ⌘ Read more
