Ever "borrow" a wireless internet connection?
Anyone "borrow" or ever "borrowed" someone elses's wireless internet connection. And I'm not talking free Starbucks internet either, lol. 
Or, if you don't have access to wireless.....say you did, would you use your neighbors unsecured internet connection?
Just wondering....thought it would be an interesting subject.

Sure I'd do it. Just a quick question, don't they have to be within 400' for it to work on your laptop?

Youd probably have to be within 150ft. 150ft is the indoor range of most consumer level wireless routers.
