I have a moral dilemma

[liberaltrucker]

Should I inform the business I'm parked next to
to secure their WiFi, or should I just enjoy the
benefit. I have NO intention of disrupting their
network, but others can, and given the opportunity,
will. Guess I answered my question. I'll talk to 'em
in the morning.

1. Did I mention, they didn't encrypt root authority?

:scared:

2. Definitely tell them in the morning

They could get seriously hacked.

8. Oops. I Answered Before I Read The Thread

That is definitely a problem and I am sure they would want to know.

3. Tell them.

I had to read my boss the riot act to get him to at least put a password on ours, I think it would have been easier to get him to listen (My boss: What? Nothing bad can ever happen to our computers! They're macs!) if he'd found out strangers were using it.

5. Macs aren't immune on a WiFi network

Your boss hasn't a clue.

9. Oh trust me, I know.

That's just one tiny sliver of his vast cluelessness.

[liberaltrucker]

4. I definitely will

It's a small business. No huge IT department. I'll save my
access records and show them I meant no harm, but others
could.

6. You don't seem to have a problem with morals...

You always seem to manage to do the right thing. :hug::hi:

7. I Don't Think Allowing Access To One's WIFI

is a hacking risk if they have proper firewalls set up. In short, they can access the service but not your pc or server. In fact, I remember a movement trying to get people to share their WIFI. I do not have mine secured and neither does our neighbor and we often use each others (different providers) when one of ours is down.
