i had first post! now, a post with thought! (Score 1)

hrms... i'm using a microwave link now that sits on the roof and aims through the trees... encryption should be an non-issue as long as bandwith usage remains manageable; that is, the amount of bandwith the average user can use is close to what is reasonably encryptable using a lightweight scheme. Of course, snoopers would have to splice the actual laser... just keep a camera with really really big zoom along the path of the signal... hmm. so i guess i could upgrade my t1-ish (strange, 200 KBps (kbytes)downloads despite paying for 384 kbits microwave) to this in a couple weeks, cough. Ah. Anyone notice dem pitiable foo's in the article who confused bits and bytes? Phall to phoenish.
