I notice the article makes no mention of the fact that all ways of securing your wifi routers (except WPA-PSK encryption) are just as easy to break as with no security.
I was going to buy one of those Internet radios a couple of months ago, until I discovered that it does not support WPA (it only supports WEP encryption).
Manufacters of these sort of device need to wake up to this because (as Roger says) most people are not even aware of this let alone even fewer (like me) actually know how to do this sort of thing.
Whatever. Who cares. It's mostly innocuous.
