Its this simple, people are lazy and no one takes pride in their work. Why use wireless to begin with, especially in a store where running cables isn't a big deal. The one reason that there will always be security problems is because people look for shortcuts. In cases like lowes, not doing the simple things like changing defaults or using encryption its very annoying.
