Stealing my neighbor's internets

[Tigadee]

Just because stealing something is easy doesn't make it right ...

Tell that to the bloody politicians and Auckland city council!

Stealing is theft.

If you can justify taking anything because it is not locked you have little moral fibre and you are a thief.

What more is there to say.

I steal internet every where I go using my phone, most people just give me their wifi passwords but there are plenty of other ways to get access. And my phone tells me if there is an unsecure network in the area.

I did used to have my laptop and playstation on my neighbors network, but he was a gc so I kept downloads to a minimum.

Depriving a tangible asset from the rightful owner is theft. Connecting to a computer network with the intention of gaining internet access is not.

+1 to that.

Unless of course you would otherwise pay for that service, in which case it is depriving someone of income...

Even the cheapest 802.11 AP has WPA2 these days. There's no excuse for having insecure WiFi.

Ah yes, the 'taking candy from a baby' justification, always an adequate defense

TBH, this many years after the OP, it has paractically become the norm that if the WiFi is not access protected then the 'owner' is granting the free use/sharing of it. most are then named with free or public.

Cracking the security though is a whole 'nother ball of wax.

I wouldn't say that, still many people who just haven't set em up right.

I had no end of trouble getting ours to work, so had security turned off until we could get all the connections sorted. Had a bunch of oldies as neighbours so never bothered securing it.

New neighbours' kids started connecting though, so now it be secured and renamed No-WIFI-4u haven't seen em on the network since

If its called freewifi and someone gets your passwords and downloads heaps of crap then gets caught, I wonder if the name would be enough to get them off of whatever charges can be laid on people doing these sorts of things. I always put the word virus in my SSID although I doubt it would stop anyone anyway.

[Clockwork]

All you need is WifiKill to start trolling, it works especially well on the macfags.

Even better is when they leave the default admin/admin user name and password, then change the SSID to add moar lulz.
