Most of them may not be aware thatthey are “sharing the service” and “giving away what they bought for free.” Most of my clients have no desire to do that, so we put password protection on their WiFi.
One user may be a great guy, and only use the WiFi connection of his neighbor to read FR and google. There are plenty of others who will use the free WiFi to download porn (as in the case here) or to steal copyrighted movies and music. At least I give my clients the choice as to whether they wish to be nice people or not.
Yeah, all that’s true, but it’s best to presume that they are being cool about it, what with the agreements they have with the ISP and all.
