Wow. I pay for high speed DSL, with an ethernet cable running into my desktop tower. My wifi base works like a charm but a while back I needed to power it down. The thing is, about 5 other prople in my building have open networks. So I never bothered to turn my own on again. I always have great access using everyone else's, for several months now. Sheer laziness makes me a criminal.

One other note: where I live, the city has made several areas (a park, the central promenade) free open wireless zones.

Could a bunch of creative commies got together and set up a bunch of fee co-op wifi zones, like Amsterdam's white bicycles or whatever? (Or wasn't that done - I seem to recall somebody sued to stop it)
