Legoland Tracking in Depth

Legoland Tracking in Depth 04/27/2004 09:27 PM
RFID Journal provides the detail on Legoland's kid-tracking Wi-Fi hardware: The magazine provides piles of additional detail about the Denmark theme park's system to let parents find their children if lost. The system combines BlueSoft's AeroScout system with software by KidSpotter, which on its Web site, is more explicit that the system can be used to track visitors patterns for better park optimization. About 1,600 children or 0.1 percent of the 1.6 million visitors, become separated from parents each year, so it's a small but significant problem. The rental fee is €3 per day; the entrance fee is mid-€20s. The park is installing 38 AeroScout units which cost from $3,000 to $4,000 each. The tags themselves cost about $85 each and the park is starting with 500 of them. Not mentioned in this article is that the tags use very tiny amounts of one-way signalling which allows their batteries to last for years....

Legoland Tracks Kids by Wi-FI

Legoland Tracks Kids by Wi-FI 04/26/2004 02:28 PM
The Billund, Denmark, Legoland uses KidSpotter to track children in the park, if parents want: For a rental fee, parents can Wi-Fi enable their children preventing their unintentional loss. The press release says that the park is the largest Wi-Fi installation in the world, but it's only 10 hectares (about 25 acres)--could that be larger than Disney World's Wi-Fi network? Or Novell or Microsoft's sprawling campus? And what about Los Cerritos (9 square miles of Aiirmesh coverage) or Santa Clara (25 square miles of MetroFi coming online)?...

Porn Trackers

Porn Trackers 08/31/2004 03:21 PM

They look at porn all day, so others won't be able to: I always new that somewhere there was a hive of people keeping those site-blocking databases up-to-date. How can they keep up?

Some days, work is so horrible that Christa Adams must leave her desk and take a walk around the building to calm down. The horrifying, violent sexual images that pop up on her computer screen still unnerve her.

But she is no longer shocked. After all, she went looking for those images. It is part of the job when you are a porn-tracker.

She is one of about a dozen "verifier technicians" at 8e6 Technologies, an Orange-based firm that develops software for organizations seeking to keep employees or children from looking at inappropriate Web sites.

DIY Host bans BitTorrent trackers

DIY Host bans BitTorrent trackers 05/04/2004 10:52 AM
The UK ISP DIYHost has changed its terms of service to explicitly forbid hosting BitTorrent trackers. Time for DIYHost's customers to get a better ISP. Actually, the whole ToS is pretty craptacular: no linking to emulators? No sites not in English? Crikey.

"BitTorrent" servers and source sites, third-party copyrighted material, "warez" (including pirated software, ROMS, emulators, "phreaking", hacking, password cracking material - and links to the same), sites not in the English language, or IRC servers on our network. It is also forbidden to use our service as a "remote/off site back up" or a "filestore" solution. Accounts found hosting this material will be subject to immediate cancellation without refund. Easy Internet Solutions Ltd reserves the right to terminate accounts hosting material, which in its sole opinion, may be classed as "undesirable content" or which may pose a risk (of any sort) to either Easy Internet Solutions Ltd as a company, our network or servers or to a third party.

Free open WiFi on Tacoma-Washington
train, courtesy WiFi hacker 03/24/2005 08:15 PM
Cory Doctorow: A Seattle wireless hacker rides a commuter train from Tacoma every day with a battery-powered WiFi hotspot in his backpack that's linked up to the Internet with a 14.4 144k wireless modem. Catch his train and get free WiFi on your commute.

The open wireless node can be found in the first car of the last morning train and in Car 403 on the 5:10pm return trip. Use SSID "FreeInternetAccess" or "seattlewireless" to connect - You may have to assign yourself an IP in the range 192.168.0.0/24 and use the Default Gateway 192.168.0.1 as the DHCP is sometimes flakey

Review: WiFi Seeker / WiFi Spy

Review: WiFi Seeker / WiFi Spy 07/16/2004 04:50 PM
A few weeks ago I got Chrisalis Developemnt's WiFi Seeker, a convenient keychain-sized wireless network locator. Marware's recently announced WiFi Spy is a rebranded version of the same device, so it should perform identically.

To locate a wireless network simply press the button and watch the LEDs. When the lights stop sweeping back and forth, the number that remain lit will show the strength of the wireless signal. If the lights continue to sweep back and forth, you're not in range for any wireless network. Unlike other devices, the WiFi Seeker isn't fooled by other 2.5 GHz signals like microwave ovens or cordless phones, and it doesn't depend on 802.11 client activity to detect the access point. It detects both 802.11b and 802.11g.

Vivato Deploys at Lincoln University 11/03/2003 02:35 PM
Vivato's switches save years and dollars at university: This installation would have been challenging for conventional wireless LANs, the press release notes, because the university spans many buildings across 400 acres. Many of the 40 buildings are historic, which probably translates into "no wiring closets" and an aging electrical physical plant. The backstory of a press release like this is that Vivato finds it necessary to promote the installation of their equipment at institutions with unique characteristics rather than announcing the sale of their gear to Fortune 5000 companies or wireless ISPs....
