A bit of a scary story:

Being hooked up to the net 24/7 is not the 'good thing' the net providers and wireless corporations would have you believe. Anything actively hooked up to the net is vulnerable and you never know who or what kind of creeps are out there trawling for victims. An abundance of caution is necessary to guard against the predators; adopt the attitude that, when you are on the net, you are a potentially "glass house" and just about anyone can see, hear, or access you at any time...
