Google is preparing to
launch its own Wi-Fi service, according to certain pages on the company's
website.
The pages mention a previously unknown product called Google Secure Access
which can be
downloaded as a
beta. The software allows automatic encryption of Wi-Fi signals using a VPN
run by Google.
"One of our engineers recognised that secure Wi-Fi was virtually non-existent
at most locations," states the
Google Wi-Fi
FAQ.
"As a result, he used his project time to begin an initiative to offer users
more secure Wi-Fi access. Google Secure Access is the result of this endeavour.
"
Full details are not yet on the site but the web page's contents suggest that
the first Google Wi-Fi hotspots will be based in San Francisco. The search
giant already sponsors a Wi-Fi hotspot in the city's Union Square.
