I'm wondering about the legality of just poking an antenna up and using any
old service that happens to be in the neighborhood. Granted, people are
stupid for not securing their wifi network, but there is no getting around
the fact that to use someone else's broadband connection with out their
permission is theft-of-service. Also, doing so diminishes the "owner's"
bandwidth. You should also know that a diligent "owner" can find out if
there is an unauthorized connection to "his" network by simply querying his
WAP.

Just my 2 cents.
