There is an upcoming project designed by the government of the State of Rio de Janeiro to implement free Wi-Fi network all over the city. This will certainly make the technology very popular. The project will begin in the neighborhood of Copacabana and eventually extend to Baixada Fluminense. The government expects that the whole state will have Wi-Fi coverage within 18 months.

Sure, this is a great option to make Internet access popular and democratic, but we should never forget about security issues! Data traveling through air (in wireless networks) can be easily intercepted or accessed. So, if you plan to use the public wireless network, make sure you have some encryption system in place to protect your data and avoid unpleasant surprises…
