Reading the Wifi report,
http://www.weca.net/OpenSection/pdf/Wi-
Fi_Protected_Access_Overview.pdf
it seems their customers stampeded them and demanded that the
security hole be fixed, fixed a damned lot sooner than they
intended to fix it.
I am struck the contrast between the seemingly strong demand
for wifi security, compared to the almost complete absence of
demand for email security.
Why is it so?
