Why don't they make it opt in instead? If the SSID doesn't include _maprouter, then it doesn't get added. If it's such a good thing I'm sure everyone will want to be included.

Because that would make too much sense..

A PR solution by Google. Nobody is going to bother doing this method. So Google claims they did good knowing it won't affect their collection of SSID's at all.

And what about other map vendors like Bing Maps? They have their own data collection vendors. Will they use the Google method or will they want their own opt-out method.
