A Thompson Air flight was delayed after a passenger noticed a WiFi hotspot named "Jihadi," leading to a security scare. The incident sparked a discussion on creative and provocative SSID names, ranging from "FBI Surveillance Van" to "Hillary Clinton's Email Server," and the lack of creativity in most residential building networks.
Fifth Anniversary Donations and Wireless SSID Propagation
As the show approaches its fifth anniversary, producers send in celebratory donations. One producer suggests a "PR propagation" tactic where listeners rename their home and work wireless SSIDs to "noagendashow.com" with the password "inthemorning." The hosts also discuss upcoming amateur radio (HAM) tests and acknowledge a Drupal developer's newsletter.
Subliminal App Easter Eggs, Public Wi-Fi SSIDs
The hosts encourage app developers to hide No Agenda logos as Easter eggs in their software, citing "The Exercise Coach" as an example. They also give a shout-out to a listener in Northern Ireland who named his public Wi-Fi SSID after the show, and briefly address a listener's request for advice on teenage employment.
Listeners are encouraged to rename their Wi-Fi SSIDs to "noagendashow.com" to promote the program. For security, it is recommended to use guest channels on 802.11n routers rather than sharing primary access. A standardized WEP password generation trick using the phrase "in the morning" is suggested for creating consistent codes across different router hardware.
Wi-Fi SSID Promotion, Guest Network Security, and Router Technology
A listener suggestion to change Wi-Fi SSIDs to "noagendastream.com" is discussed as a grassroots marketing tactic. The hosts explore the technical feasibility of using 802.11n routers to set up secondary guest networks with the password "in the morning." This method allows producers to provide internet access to others while keeping their primary home networks secure and segmented.
