It's been an interesting and worrying week for Wireless Hotspots and the UK Internet Service Industry.
There's been talk of banning public WiFi hotspots completely; news that the UK government's trying to take control over what sites we look at and finally copyright infringement policies on video sharing sites such as vimeo and youtube.com
Banning our access to the Internet via Wi-Fi Hotspots is not the answer - instead we need strong controls over how they're operated. At PolkaSpots we have so many discreet controls in place, it's pretty hard to abuse our network. And, our customers never notice unless they're doing something illegal.
But is it just the fault of public Wi-Fi hotspot companies? Probably not, what about the ISPs - shouldn't they be trying a little harder.
If you're thinking about setting up a free or pre-paid Wi-Fi Hotspot in your cafe, restaurant, hotel or bar; think twice before you do it yourself as your business may be at risk.
