In this new age of technology the wireless networks of small business are ripe for plunder by anyone with a notebook and a "need" to download a few GB of dross from the net.
I have noticed more and more small business's WiFi networks being secured but there's still a lot that aren't.
Enter the
Geek Warrior, Hero of The Battle Of Toys. With a few deft strokes of his stylus he/she can shut down illegal access to your network tighter than a fish's fundamental.
Virus scanning and interception, networking and fast ISP access are all skills learned at the knee of wise and ancient masters, who hail from the turn of the century.
These members of a secret guild of technowarriors are gentle IT-Samurai folks who can turn to furious foes in just moments, repelling DDOS attacks and tweaking up LAN transfer speeds.
Wearing robes emblazoned with either the croissant (crescent) or a fish (icthyus), they could have stepped straight from the pages of Crusades history, but for the electronic gadgetry worn on their ornately crafted utility belts.
All for the cost of a decent coffee and a handful of croissants, before they take to the road again, scanning the digital horizon for the weak and oppressed, to help them attain justice

Having seen the prices in Starbucks, the price of a decent coffee, with accompanying confection, is no paltry sum. |

That pun really isn't worth it. How about a machine which grinds up and melts down old, disused tarmac? We could call it the Road Worrier. |

Well, it started out with a discussion about warchalking, with [zen-tom]. The name was Geek Warriors, then I realised they also roam, so I added that bit. |

I'd like to see them doing battle in the streets, with evil hackers, dressed in black, [jurist] |
