On the one hand, a seems-solid article by an author I mostly trust.
OTOH... with the recent journalistic scandal at Ars Technica, perhaps Dan should have made sure that he spelled "Ubiquity" correctly? (5th para; it's correct further down.)

That's an easy autocorrect issue. As someone who write Ubiquiti more often than most.
I don't even think most editors would know the difference. That's the problem with using corruptions of real words as your name.
I once suggested HN implement auto-correct because there are so many misspellings here. I was quickly downvoted.
IMO spelling mistakes have always been a relatively weak indicator of writing quality, let alone truthiness.
I was indeed very surprised to see that it's from Dan Goodin
I only read his articles occasionally, but they always impressed me favorably; this one instead... the paper is probably clearer even for less technical people.
