The ?portthru? network is an unsecured wireless network that is automatically created by certain HP laptops, Samsung wireless printers, and other devices. These are designed to help you set up ?ad-hoc? or direct computer to computer connections.
You definitely never want to connect to one of these.

I'll let Google steal YOUR identity, NOT MINE. Google is one of the top identity stealing sites online. Along with Facebook and Amazon. I dont use any of these three. I do however use Duck Duck Go.
Of course if you want to add to the demise of usenet, just keep telling people to use google, for every on topic question they ask. Pretty soon you'll have this newsgroup all to yourself, and you'll be able to post questions and answer your own questions since no one else will be here.
But you're probably like this guy:
You're delusional if you think Duck Duck Go isn't doing the same data harvesting as Google.

Then you are using Google. Duck Duck Go uses Google to do the heavy lifting, then they display it as if it was their own. The only thing the contribute are filters for the results from Google.
