Hi
Interesting post!
I checked my router and the following Security options are available:
None, WEP, 802.1X, WPA-PSK, WPA

I am not a Security expert, however I understand that all of them would have vunerablities in them.
Whichever security protocol you might want to implement, it is just a matter of time before an exploit is found.

In India we have a saying "Locks are to stop a honest man from being a thief. A lock would not stop a thief. Thief would be able to crack the lock anyway"

I figure that ISP's would not be able to do much about the security aspect of wireless access points.

"Some security" or "No Security at all"

I would root with "Some Security"
