Or are smart phones now so ubiquitous that that seems a dumb question.<br /><br />Regarding the email address precaution I can imagine that nothing bad actually happened but that somebody raised the possibility in a meeting that it might happen and once the possibility had been raised, nobody was able to dismiss it, however unlikely it was in case it actually did. I know, because I've been in those meetings...townmousehttp://cityexile.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-82497600308022000052010-06-29T06:16:20.980+00:002010-06-29T06:16:20.980+00:00No doubt they got in hot water over something some...No doubt they got in hot water over something someone posted through their network.<br />Maybe someone tried to sue them over "hate speech", so now they make sure they can trace activity back to the actual person involved (dubious, but such decisions are rarely made by people with the technical knowhow needed).<br /><br />Be happy you have free internet in your terminals.<br />Here in Amsterdam it's charged, costs (last time I checked, I never looked again, can do without internet while waiting for a flight) something like 10 Euro per half hour.<br />Later I noticed my ISP runs on the same network as the airport and as a result I can use the airport's network for free (and legal too) :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-58802014280205086732010-06-29T02:09:49.377+00:002010-06-29T02:09:49.377+00:00If Anonymous is correct in his reasoning, it would...If Anonymous is correct in his reasoning, it would likely be the authorities digging through it, so no need to be happy they had to work for it. <br /><br />When they first rolled it out, you just connected, no registration required.

Right?<br /><br />;-)<br /><br /><br />As far as the email registration thing - getting a confirmed email address is usually enough to provide the legal means to find out who you are if the need arose (through subpoenaing your email provider for your login history, finding when you were logging in from a residence or cell phone, and then finding out who owns the house or phone). Why they'd go through the trouble to do it, I don't know.<br /><br />Of course, your email login history would be a pain in the ass to dig through, so if they ever tracked you down, you could at least be happy that they had to work for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
