In this case, it isn’t Big Brother who’s watching — it’s Big Mother (or Father). Increasingly, parents are using high-tech methods to track everything from where their children are and how far they are driving to what they buy, what they eat and whether they’ve shown up for class.

PHILADELPHIA — Sometimes reform comes in very strange ways. The battle royale between the city of Philadelphia and Verizon over who will provide citywide wireless Internet access plans couldn’t be more confusing. Free-market types have got to root for publicly traded Verizon over any local, politicized branch of government, right? C’mon, isn’t this City Hall we’re talking about — a building wrapped in red tape (as if by Christo)!

Networking vendor Juniper has adopted Meru’s radical Wi-Fi architecture for voice on Wi-Fi, but speculation continues over the company’s Wi-Fi strategy. As the only large enterprise networking vendor still without a clear strategy for wireless LANs, Juniper has been courted by Wi-Fi vendors who want to provide Juniper’s solution for Wi-Fi LANs. Meru’s distinctive single-channel architecture, which has won the largest ever Wi-Fi voice contract, has now won favour at Juniper, which will co-market it according to a Meru press release.

Juniper Networks today said it has inked a partnership with Meru Networks to integrate its line of WLAN and wireless VoIP products with Juniper’s IP routing and security portfolio.
