The "problem" isn't going to go away, it's going to become ubiquitous. What's really being called for is [link\|http://www.freeswan.org/intro.html\|S/WAN]. The problem isn't that unencrypted data might be captured when transmitted across radio links, it's that unencrypted data are being spewed without consideration by every device on the 'Net.
