Stupid name for a hot spot when traveling by air.
There are parents who name their children "Osama" after 911.
Now we know who the extremists are.

looks like a new way for anyone to cause massive costly delays with a simple ssid name.
time for a phone software upgrade which will require hotspot ssid's to be automatically uploaded to the NSA for further review....

Aha! Eureka!
I have wondered for years about the prevalence of the idiocy "is is" in corporate meetings:
The situation is, is that..."
What it is, is we've left that market sector to our competitors of whom the biggest is is WidgetCo."
Well it makes sense now: These people are moles for ISIS!

LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (KABC) --
An American Airlines flight from Los Angeles International Airport to London was delayed Sunday after concerns over the name of a WiFi hotspot.
A passenger saw the WiFi connection, named "Al-Quida Free Terror Nettwork," and expressed concern to a flight attendant. Flight 136 was taken back to the gate.
Passengers were reportedly not allowed to leave the plane for about three hours. Travelers said they were initially told that it was some sort of maintenance issue.
The flight was delayed until 1 p.m. Monday, American Airlines officials said.
"After further investigation, it was determined that no crime was committed and no further action will be taken," the airport said in a statement to Eyewitness News on Monday.
