If someone doesn't put a password on their network, it's free game.
If you forget to lock your front door, it's free game.
I'll remember this.
Well, in Canada, it's perfectly legal to pick locks. Well...as long as you don't do anything inside :ninja:
I didn't mention anything about lockpicking locked doors.
I'm just saying that it doesn't matter if the door's locked or not. Same rules apply regardless.

That wasn't my point.
What I meant is that if he thinks "Oh, it's unlocked, so it's alright if I connect to it and steal internet", then he would think it's alright to enter a house and steal stuff if the door is unlocked.
 
I learned about Piracy before I had my own Computer/access to our own internet. So I did the next best thing, used the fabulous PSP Internet browser. Man, I was such a pro!

PSP Movie site> Movie> Send Space File host (one of the few that actually work with the PSP Browser> hover the mouse over the DL Link> Press the Triangle button> "Save As"

Heh, still can't believe I have that process memorized. And to think I had to be in my bed, twisted at a strange angle to get the WIFI Signal (I would get some really bad cramps) to download the stuff.

Than about a week ago I come home from vacation to see that they are now using WPA2-PSK. Fail! But meh, I have my own Internet now and a beast Laptop.

The thing I said about the lockpicking also applies to wifi networks though. You can go into the open wifi network or break into a locked one, but doing anything inside is illegal regardless.

When I was still in college, so 4 years ago, there was a bus stop in Moreno Valley right across from a mini mall. There was a business behind the bus stop with open wifi and download speeds up to 2mb. I did that for almost a year.
 
I only leech at my school. (MAC Spoof :P)

No one can get into my Internet at my house. My network SSID is hidden and I setup a MAC Filter so that only my devices can get in.
It's a pain to add a new device though.
 
I used to before I got WiFi, from my unencrypted neighbors, but now that I have a router, I stopped.
