A A magnitude 6.2 earthquake hit central Italy on Wednesday morning, killing 247 people in small towns in the region so far. Disaster relief organizations are already working hard to search and rescue survivors. To aid their efforts, the Italian Red Cross asked the citizens who live in nearby areas to turn them off WiFi their codes so that workers and people affected can easily use these networks.

In addition to helping rescue teams stay connected to , το ξεκλείδωμα του WiFi δικτύου μπορεί επίσης να βοηθήσει και τους επιζώντες να επικοινωνήσουν με τα αγαπημένα τους πρόσωπα και να τους ενημερώσουν για την κατάστασή τους. Σε τέτοιες δύσκολες περιπτώσεις η κοινή χρήση της internet σύνδεσης θα μπορούσε επίσης να επιτρέψει στους ανθρώπους της περιοχής να παρακάμψουν την συμφόρηση των υπηρεσιών κινητής τηλεφωνίας χρησιμοποιώντας VoIP και εφαρμογές .

Of course, the answer of the code brings the risk to their users of a third party spying on web traffic, but if one does not need to use access to private services such as online banking etc, then unlocking WiFi will not have .

Surely the move to help someone who is in a state of danger deserves the risk and the trouble of temporarily disabling the Wifi access restriction.

Of course, the news concerns the neighbors of the country's neighbor, but you have taken this Italian Red Cross request as it is necessary to be done in every corner of this planet affected by a natural disaster. Greece is a seismogenic country and if at any moment the squad hit your site, do not hesitate to give any assistance to your rescue teams and your fellow citizens by disabling your WiFi lockout.
