This alarming discovery shows that the security standards provided by WiFi's WPA and WPA2 encryption systems are worryingly insufficient when it comes to protecting data transmitted over wireless connections. This raises serious doubts about 'out-of-the-box security' and iterates the importance of utilizing added protection - such as VPN encryption.

It is silly, for instance, that England have only one representative – Middlesex, for whom the worst can be feared when the tournament starts in Bangalore next month. Sooner or later it is to be expected that the Board of Control for Cricket in India and the England and Wales Cricket Board – the former having utterly outflanked the latter in the league's formation – will kiss and make up. They need each other. But there are other unsatisfactory aspects to the competition that reflect the worryingly unstructured nature of the T20 competitions being formed hither and thither. Take, for instance, Albie Morkel, a player any T20 side would want – and whom indeed many have had. In theChampions League, Morkel will represent his home side, Nashua Titans, based near Johannesburg.
