Computer forensics is constantly facing an increase in ever new applications to be found on computers. I came across this today http//www.google.com/tisp/.

The blurb says

"Sign up for our free in-home wireless broadband service

"Sick of paying for broadband that you have to, well, pay for?

"Introducing Google TiSP (BETA), our new FREE in-home wireless
"broadband service. Sign up today and we'll send you your TiSP self-"installation kit, which includes setup guide, fiber-optic cable, spindle, "wireless router and installation CD.

"TiSP in-home wireless broadband is

"Free, fast and highly reliable

"Easy to install – takes just minutes

"Vacuum-sealed to prevent water damage

"Interested? You can learn more about TiSP via the links below…"

The installation seems odd to me though

More than likely….took me a few moments to work out what was going on. Goes to show how websites can take people in.

Not sure that anyone could get taken in by that.

Flush the cable down the toilet?

I think its a good idea.

From a forensics point of view I think it will be easy to read the logs, abit messy and smelly but very easy and it shouldnt require any technical equipment just a small hole strainer.

Google has had some funny ones over the years - shame they had to give it away so easily tho.
