The Politics of Wi-Fi Network Names

Follow me on:

In years past, those who feel strongly about their favorite president or other political figure would wear shirt buttons, put bumper stickers on their car, or even write an editorial letter to their local newspaper. Those customs are all feeling dated now in today's digital world. Fortunately, alternatives exist. Some have decided, for example, to name their home network after politicians. Having a router named "Obama4President" isn't for everyone, but it's a great example of free speech in the United States. The only restriction is that this "speech" must fit in 32 letters (characters), as that's the maximum length of a router's network name (SSID).
