My thoughts are people shouldnt be so quick to act like fools. They are getting the homeless a little coin. So why would the wording on the shirt be of any real issue? If they are so concerned quit bitching about the shirt and give the fucker a job.

Just think what this could do for fast internet access in rural America. Have all of America's homeless wandering the countryside providing cheap internet access at DSL speeds to Jed and Billy Bob.

Genius.

Yeah I want to route all my personal info through a homeless guy. Next time your at 7-11 and a homeless guy asks for some change, give him you name DOB SS# and mothers maiden name. Write it down for him so he never forgets it.

Just yesterday I picked up my brother from school and we saw a homeless guy on the street. My brother asked me what would I do if I were homeless? I told him that if I were homeless I would go to California because I heard their super koo to the homeless.

It's not like he's transcribing the data. It's a WiFi node. I trust a homeless person as much (ok, more) than I trust AT&T. A homeless guy is less likely to know how to execute an attack, and unlikely to be able to profit from it. AT&T has shown themselves capable and willing to do exactly that.
