Like I said depends on the area and how you are doing it. If you are parked outside someone's house and using a laptop you are probally will get busted. If you are stealing the neighbors then probally not. Here's the catch if you ask or I find out you a e using my connection and specifically tell you that it NOT ok for you to do that and you continue to use my connection, protected or not, that is in fact illegal.Comment

I was doing it earlier today testing out the browser on my PSP. On a 15 minute drive I found about 50 networks, over half of them were open. Some people have really weird SSID names

I have stopped by hotels to catch up on email. Found out I can usually do it from the parking lot.
Same with some pubs that offer free wireless.
There is also an open network in my office condo. I have connected to that inadvertantly many times.

Sorry your wrong. If you are hacking into that persons "secure" wireless connection, that is a crime. If you are simply picking up a connection off someones wireless that is configured for "open access" and doesn't need a password, you are fine. It would be the same as somebody broadcasting their radio wave into your house, and you picking it up... thats fine... if they want their wireless to be floating around in their nextdoor neighbours houses without the proper security thats their fault... fuck em.Originally posted by GatorB

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, No buddy. YOU are wrong. Stealing is stealing. It;s a crime either way, one is just easier to detect.Originally posted by porn-dog
So if someone's car is unlocked, its ok to go in and steal it? If I leave my cell phone on the table and you use to make long distance calls, its OK?
I realize it's common and done every single day and probably most will never get caught, doesnt mean its NOT illegal.
Just a tiny bit of common sense, thats all I ask.Sig for sale. ICQ: 163-545-054Comment

It's not yours. Someone else is paying for that connection; somehow that's stealing.Comment

we should better call a police now. lol

It's not that you "hack" in, when it's really wide open. They broadcast the "open" signal, and you picked it up. As long as you don't abuse it, you will be okay I guess
Questions?

Well there is a difference here.Originally posted by Mr. Mike
When you leve the door open, I go in YOUR property/ground etc.
They send the signal to public area's...Maybe even MY house! That is already a huge difference.
What if the cableproviders makes a mistake, and shows paychannel X suddenly on your TV, while you did not pay for it...You never asked for this signal, but is it illegal to watch?Questions?

That's not necessarily true. If you are using my wireless and I find out and I say to you "You do not have permission" then if you continue to use it you are in fact breaking the law. Doesn't matter if it secure or not. You POV is like saying because I left my front door unlocked you can rob my house.Originally posted by porn-dog
Now if I give you permission then no you are not breaking the law. I however am breaking the TOS of my ISP. But that's not your problem.Comment

A man was last week fined £500 after a British jury found him guilty of using a neighborhood wireless broadband connection without permission. Gregory Straszkiewicz, 24, was also sentenced to a 12 months conditional discharge after he was convicted of dishonestly obtaining an communications service and related offences at London's Islewoth Crown Court last Wednesday (20 July).Originally posted by thinkx

is it illegal to steal?
duh
it shouldnt be, cause people are so clueless when setting up wireless networks its almost asking you to surf their networks. they keep their whole lan open.
you could walk downtown toronto with a laptop and just surf any big companies network, cause 75% of them are insecure.
most of them have hired consultants at 200$/hour to come and secure it.
live in a very populated area, i doubt you would even have to buy internet, just use someone elses

its illegal in Uk they just did someone for it a few weeks backComment

I think it should only be a prosecutable crime if you hack into a password protected account or if you tresspass to get the signal, such as the case of the SUV sitting in front of someone's house. If someone next door or down the road from a location you are authorized to be finds out that you have connected to their (problem) unsecured network I don't think they should be able to file charges against you unless you actually cost them money, then it should only be a civil case, not criminal (with of course the exception if you were using their access to commit criminal activity).
