My house is near a lake that many people use for recreation. Every now
and then I find someone using my hose to get a drink for themselves or
for their dog. Stealing? Technically, yes. I paid for the water. And
yes, it's always nicer when someone asks, first. But really, it's not
that big a deal. If you're thirsty, help yourself to some water. It
strikes me that in the Wi-fi world, leaving your AP open and
unprotected is often considered by the "community" as unspoken
permission to share.
So come on by and have a drink. But if you use my hose to fill your
swimming pool, well, then we'll have words.
