The solution however, seems to be non-obvious.

Besides: If games get away with using serial numbers, then router manufacturers can get away with a sticker on the unit, saying what the WEP/WPA key is, and adjust the manuals accordingly.

And yes, it should be illegal, since war driving can be used in conjunction with other, already illegal, actions.

OTOH, somebody who uses a router not in accordance with best practices should be liable, unless the manual doesn't contain information about this.
