Unsecured Wi-Fi would be outlawed by N.Y. county | CNET News.com: "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.
Politicians in Westchester County are urging adoption of the law--which appears to be the first such legislation in the U.S.--because without it, 'somebody parked in the street or sitting in a neighboring building could hack into the network and steal your most confidential data,' County Executive Andy Spano said in a statement."
