Trolling people sounds interesting. Is there any way to have them auto-navigate to a rickroll upon connecting?
Potentially you could serve them a captive portal. I thought about this a while back, basically to create a sneakernet WiFi network where people could connect directly to a landing page that had my music for download, for example.
That would be a great thing to setup at an airport (somewhere people sit around for hours, bored). So long as it's done to advertise your music and not to be malicious. I'm assuming your music isn't "Nails on a chalkboard" or "A baby crying", that could both be music and malicious.
I think it's rather pleasant. Kind of chilled out electronic. https://music.knova.net
But yeah, no desire to be malicious. There is enough of that in the world.
Gl.net make these great portable routers, I could see someone using one for this purpose.
Captive portal?
I'll look into that, thanks.
