"If you don’t password protect, then it’s not really stealing."

This is true IMO because by default most Windows machines will automatically connect when it gets in range of an open network. No user interaction is needed. How can one steal something they may not even know they have?

I’ve restarted my studio computer and, after several days, discovered it was not connected to my router, but one of my neighbors. Usually I found out because I couldn’t find my printer, which is attached to one of the other computers on my network.

Am I going to jail?
