Submission + - Boris to enable wifi hotpots London wide for 2012

Pax681 writes: Boris Johnson declared that london will have all bus stops and lamp posts wifi enabled by 2012 for the olympics

in an article on Tech Eye Boris waxes lyrical (or as lyrical as he can get) about how it would be done at a google Zeitgeist event in Hertfordshire.

these would be public wifi hotpots and as such would these break the new law on open access points? would they be just the thing for people to use to infringe with impunity and anonymously bypass the chances of running foul of the digital economy act? and what would ACTA have to say about them too?
