eh... it's almost like a don't ask don't tell type of thing. Sure, we all know stealing wireless is not really on the level, but in the event of an emergency/urgent situation I use anything I have available

People with completely unsecure networks are opening themselves up to potential problems, including illegal activity being conducted on th network. Without a TOS/popup page (which is probably relatively easy to do), businesses are really just asking for it

That doesn't justify leeching off of the wireless, but if I'm just trying to access my bank account or email for legit purposes - I won't feel bad for even one second doing it

With the resources available to local cops, it's pretty damn near impossible for them to catch someone unless they volunteer the information. Unsecured wirless = sitting duck

if you're not secure you must assume that people will at some point use your wireless connection - that's a solid assumption. And hey, if you realize that and still want an unsecured network, then great.
