Google argues it didn’t violate the U.S. Wiretap Act when it tapped into
unencrypted Wi-Fi networks to collect data for its Street View mapping
project. The highest court in the United States disagrees.
The Supreme Court today declined to hear Google’s challenge to a federal
appeals court ruling that the Wiretap Act covers data on unencrypted, in-
home Wi-Fi networks. That means Google must face the class-action lawsuit
alleging the company illegally snooped on people from 2008 to 2010 to
bolster its Street View data.
During that period, Google would automatically scan unencrypted Wi-Fi
networks to verify its Street View cars’ location. In the process, it
scooped up all types of “payload data,” including emails, usernames,
passwords, and images sent over the web. Google acknowledged and halted the
data collection in 2010, saying it was a mistake and that it never used the
information as part of any product or service.
In June 2011, a U.S. District Judge in San Francisco allowed plaintiffs in
several private lawsuits to pursue federal Wiretap Act claims against Google.
Last year, Google reached a settlement with 38 U.S. states and the District
of Columbia, which were investigating the matter. The company agreed to pay
$7 million and destroy data collected in the U.S.
But Google still faces the private lawsuit, which it attempted to dismiss.
The Wiretap Act bars the interception of electronic communications, but the
company argued that unencrypted Wi-Fi signals weren’t covered under the
Wiretap Act, as they were “readily available to the public.” But Google’s
argument relies on a decades-old definition of “radio communication,”
which is inapplicable to local Wi-Fi signals, the appeals court decided – a
ruling the Supreme Court has upheld.

机械表的作用本来早就超越了看时间而已
用机械的运动去计量时间，甚至是月相，日期，星期，星空的运动
你不觉得这本身就是很神奇的事情吗，人类智慧的体现
精巧的手工，精美的设计。当然喜欢电子表也是很好的，省钱
就好像女人有的只能买水晶甚至假水晶做戒指，有人却带着几万甚至几十万上百万的钻石
