kat (boneidol@indy.im)'s status on Saturday, 16-Feb-2019 11:22:26 UTC kat #Sheffield is launching it's free wifi service. I remember talking about delivering this to people at the beginning of the century. Where communities would own their infrastructure and deliver it. Own their own data and manage how it is used.
Move forward 20 years and it's happening, except being delivered by a private company, and I worry about the survelliance. I guess that it's part of turning the city "smart".-

With these ubiquitous wifi zones, I worry now about people being tracked by mac-address on mobile phones as it tries to associate at every opportunity In conversation permalink -
