More and more airlines are adding Wi-Fi to planes, so—for a fee, of course—you can now pass the time on board by surfing the web with a laptop or personal device. Is this a good idea, or the most annoying thing since the restrictions on liquids at TSA checkpoints? What's potentially bad about Wi-Fi on planes? Porn, for one thing.
