The square mile now has Wi-Fi. The Cloud, as it is called, is to be free for the first month, but after that there will be a charge.

Contrast this with the proposed San Francisco Municipal Wireless scheme, and the Cloud starts to look fairly weak. In contrast with London’s single square mile of coverage, the San Francisco scheme will cover a much larger area, and will be provided free of cost to the end user.

Compared to what they’re rolling out in San Francisco, and many other US cities for that matter, the Cloud is just a glorified version of what’s already running in every coffee house in South East England.

The following is an nmap-services file that can be used in conjuction with nmap to hunt for viruses on a network. It can’t find all viruses — only those ones that open a TCP or UDP port as a backdoor — so only use it as a small part of the overall defense for your network. I won’t bother explaining how to use it — if you don’t know how then you probably shouldn’t be using it. It could potentially be used for good or evil. I use it for the former.

# Note: some of these have legitimate uses too. These are given

# Also, tonnes of trojans use common ports such as 21, 25, 80, etc.
# I have generally left these out as they’ll result in tonnes of
# false-positives.
