Comment

The trouble is that over here the fear of people abusing "free access" has led to prosecution of at least one drive-by wi-fi user who simply made use of the the open bandwidth (and did not damage the network at all - despite the misleading headline - see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4721723.stm)
What would Peter's view be if he got prosecuted for accessing a neighbour's open wi-fi network in the UK?
