Think you've heard more than enough about war driving and Wi-Fi insecurity?

Not quite the same thing. It's more like using one of those nifty microphones with a dish to easy drop on your neighbors who you would normaly not be able to hear. Or using a scanner to pick up cordless phones, or baby monitors... etc If you can sniff data packets with your nose with with out a external device apply to the cia they might pay ya good.
