Interesting idea. Did you notice this part?

>> Two of the on-camera apps (MobileLink, Remote Viewfinder) open an unencrypted access point... we can connect with whichever client, stream a live video or download all the private pictures from the SD card

It's a pretty radical idea that people's private photos and videos should be downloadable and viewable by any random stranger. Is that what you meant by "more stuff should be open"?

In an ideal world stuff would be open and secure. But that doesn't seem to be happening.

Maybe if we are super clear what "open" means. As we see here, it has different meanings for different people, apparently radically so.
