The uninvited Internet of things
The article casually and dismissively mentions living inside a Faraday cage... but can we entertain this notion for a moment?<p>If one is already building a new house from scratch, it would seem trivial to make the whole thing a Faraday cage while you're at it, no? Am I missing something?<p>Retrofitting an existing house would be harder, but still doable if one is committed to the cause, like a couple thousand bucks tops? (Guessing here.)<p>It doesn't seem that one would have to give up ANY actually desired functionality. Wired internet piercing the cage is not an issue, right? After that you can just have your own secured wifi inside. If one is okay with using VoIP for voice calls, the problem is now solved, yes?<p>Add a second AP outside if you also need Wifi in the backyard or whatever.
