Yes I was wrong about that, since the owner was sharing his internet access for free the guy wasn’t stealing.

That doesn’t take anything away from my points about respecting the paid for property of others - he could have at least bought some coffee to show appreciation for the “free” internet access he got because the person paying for it was generous enoug to share it.

A real man! I respect you.

Like I said, I do agree with most of what you are saying.

And hey, I had to back down on something in this thread too because I was wrong...

I tried to make the same point. Apparently, many freepers cannot see the difference between legality and ethics. It may not have been legally wrong for the guy to use the signal, but it may have been ethically wrong (IMHO).
