Unsecured Wi-Fi would be outlawed by N.Y. county

UNSECURED WI-FI WOULD BE OUTLAWED BY NY COUNTY According to a new proposal
being considered by a suburb of New York City, any business or home office
with an open wireless connection but no separate server to fend off Internet
attacks would be violating the law. The draft proposal would compel all
"commercial businesses" with an open wireless access point to have a
"network gateway server" outfitted with a software or hardware firewall.
