I'm currently completing a survey for someone's psychology research. One of the questions is "I would never try to get away with using pay-for-use WiFi Internet access if I hadn't actually paid for it". I've done more than a few surveys and it's the first time I've seen a question like that! IP over DNS works almost everywhere and the "iodine" implementation while a little clunky works well. It also gives you more than 20 minutes at McDonalds. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/

...which is (one reason) why the captive portal approach is dumb. (Accessibility is another.)

Yes, the double-negative questions were rather annoying. But it also seemed to assume more knowledge of computer security than most people posess. "I would steal a space-shuttle for a joy-ride if I could get away with it" would have almost as much relevance for most people. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
