Scouting

Note: When Hastings Wireless "scouts" they do not do any of the following:

  • Attempt to gain access to personal information, computer accounts, or computing resources for which we are not authorized;
  • Damage, alter, or tamper with others' data contained appropriately within or transported by the citizens of Hastings and surrounding area's computing facilities;
  • Violate the confidentiality of information associated with an individual or their research, or information associated with said person;
  • Examine the contents of data packets transmitted on 802.11x networks;
  • Commit Any form of harassment or threatening activity;
  • Violate copyright protection and authorizations, license agreements, and contracts;
  • Use the found networks for any commercial use, or use for profit;
  • Transfer and/or without authorization use the citizens of Hastings and surrounding area computer's names and addresses
  • Activity on any non-local network, such as Internet, that violates their usage guidelines (see usage guidelines from these various networks).
  • Violating copyright laws and their fair use provisions through inappropriate reproduction and/or distribution of music (including MP3 files), movies, computer software, copyrighted text, images, etc.
  • Our Main purpose for "scouting" is to find if the surrounding networks will interfear with our MAN networking project. We provide the information we find to the community so that if they wish to join our network, or plan on developing a MAN network of their own, they can properly access the impact of other 802.11x networks on their planned network.
