I have a feeling that I’d think this project was really fucking cool if I knew the first thing about computers and networking. Not only is there this cool, high-tech backpack thingie, but the website’s got neat graphics with red slashes though Starbucks and McDonalds logos. I think it’s got something to do with dissemenating the wireless internet, and “putting it to the man,” but don’t quote me. (As cool as I think it is though, I think wearing it in public would probably get you two bullets in the head from Homeland Security. Other than that, it’s probably a really good idea.)

I know that Starbux charges people for wifi access. Maybe MickeyD’s runs the same scheme?
I like the idea behind it, that you can create free internet hot spots in places where they either don’t exist, like at protest sites, or where they usually exist for a fee. I think that’s a noble aim. I just don’t understand how it works. Whne I look at it, I just see a magic backback.
