Questions about wardriving

You're apparently entertained by slurping up and regurgitating LAST DECADES failing views and stupidity. Free cl00, Kiddie, there have been some fairly significant advances in Flash since the year 2000.

I believe with enough beatings I can even teach someone as DUMB as you about the uses of Flash.

Reductio ad absurdum, though not below the ken of many legal minds. You're beating around the "inducement" bush and while that gambit has been used by many, the logical -and at the same time illogical- extension of your idea is that we could hold homeowners partially responsible for the actions of B&E artists because the homeowner has doors and windows in his/her house.

you really need to stop m*********ng while looking in the mirror

Oh christ, you've crawled out from under your rock again?

OK Zippy, I think it's time you took your medications. Calm down, everything's going to be alright. Remember what your Doctor said about getting all excited. Go play with your "flash" some more.

As I stated in an earlier post, the analogy of B&E doesn't work here, receiving a wireless signal is a passive activity, you merely have to turn on your computer and there is the signal. It is more like looking in windows that don't have shades than rattling doors. If you don't want somebody to look in your windows, pull down the shades.

really? I'll have to get the latest mozilla flash plugin then so I can waste time on youtube.com

qualified ACK on that one - not having a flash plugin saves bandwidth loading pages that have embedded ads using flash...

I think you could make the case that you're using someone else's utility service. As an example, if you hook up a phone to someone's outside phone connection and make local calls (which cost the subscriber nothing) you're still 'stealing services' whether there's any obvious cost to anyone or not.

But I doubt anyone would be able to trace it back to you, at any rate, and nobody's going to look for you unless you're doing something ELSE that's "more illegal" in the process.

Make sure your blinders are on nice and tight, Doofy. We wouldn't want your stupid ass reading anything that might make you pop off at the mouth and start drooling incoherently. ^_^

I'm sorry, you must have confused yourself with someone that I would have actually taken the bother to remember. Maybe next time a lil introduction first. A kind of a "Hi, my name is --, you verbally hammered me into the f***in wall in --, back in --, I'd like to start whining about it now if that's okay with you."

Why not, it's probably a much better "waste of time" than watching all those gay ass reruns of Friends that you love so much, Bobby dearest. ^_^

Not me, my dear fellow. The whole of alt.hacker, which infrequently sees you and really doesn't want to in the first place.

He does this whenever he runs out of beer late at night. The nearby dorms are usually pretty stocked.

Oh, and for a while I would often use my neighbors' WiFi connectivity because (a) several have unencrypted networks and (b) I hadn't configured KNetworkManager correctly to use my ESSID with the WPA encryption. Now that I'm up on 10.1, I don't have that issue.

I'd be surfing happily until I realized I wouldn't be able to send/recieve emails because I wasn't on the right service provider. (Of course, using

Nowhere in the term "wardriving" does it state that anybody's service is actually used. Wardriving is simply using your tools (laptops or otherwise) to determine what houses contain WiFi networks and then which of those are encrypted or not.

When you wardrive - something I don't do since I have no time - you simply determine what areas have networks - you do not use these networks.

The laws here in California are very clear on not allowing the use of others' networks when you're not invited to do so. That is called "stealing bandwidth."

Sure they couldn't. Of course, it helps if you change your MAC while you're out and about.

A Router is a computer, by the definition extant throughout the western world. Check if you're not sure.

When you access a router, you cause the logs to be altered. The logs are data. Then see clause 18.2-154.4 p4.
