[OpenWireless Tech] Low Bandwidth HTTPS Open WiFi

[michi1 at michaelblizek.twilightparadox.com]

Hi!

I agree that if we want people to operate open wifi we should give them ways
to do so safely. I have not really thought about internet-of-things and
risks+opportunities of bandwidth limited (how limited?) access. But a few
parts of your post do not make much sense to me:

- Why would you want to use wifi? There are specialised protocols for these
devices. They use a lot less power which can be important if you run on
batteries.

- Why would you want to use HTTPS? It only adds overhead and prevents the
server from pushing messages to the client. Also please do not use CAs to
validate the certs, bundle them with the addresses instead.
