Connecting to unsecured wireless: Is it hijacking? by ChuckAB2006-11-19 12:55:59
  I do it when i'm in the city by MikeCDN2005-01-27 09:11:30
    Using your logic... by Illiad2005-01-27 10:05:18
      Nonono, we had that already by Control2005-01-27 10:09:10
        No, that's your interpretation. by Illiad 2005-01-27 10:12:54
You're making the rather grandiose assumption that seeing a key means you've been given explicit rights to use it. If you see a key stuck in someone's door, do you assume that they want you to come in and use their facilities or do you assume that they were sloppy or naive about security?

The ethics here are clear. As it bloody well should be for anyone who uses an unknown wireless network that isn't labelled "PUBLIC ACCESS."
