While waiting for the EFIKA, we had the opportunity to check the Cybercafé situation in Algeria again. Results:
- More and more... popping up like mushrooms
- No security what so ever, let alone traffic shaping
Since these people rely on the sales of their services, they risk loosing a lot of customers when there is a virus on their computers, or just because one person is using all the bandwith.
Commercial options available right now are too expensive, but EFIKA based systems could allow for cheap and readily available solutions. Not only for these Cybercafés, but also for small companies and schools.
