There was an SSID in my building called "Free Palestine." A couple years later, someone created another one called "The Shin Bet."[0]
I found that to be both disturbing and amusing. After the Muslim grad students on the third floor moved back to Australia, "Free Palestine" disappeared, and when the orthodox Jews moved out of the fourth floor, "The Shin Bet" went away too.
Now it's mostly boring, and while I may be doxxing myself (if you can see this SSID, reply here as we almost certainly live in the same building) but I still have the SSID GranMal (an ironic reference to this[1]).
Moral: Looking at SSIDs can be fun!

- apetresc 5y agoI don't understand your ironic reference :( What does "GranMal" have to do with that paper about wifi's effect on epileptic rats?
