I dont know about that, I believe that if a wireless network does not have any kinda enncryption it sould not be ilegal to for anyone to use is. Think of it as using walkie talkies right. Your on a PUBLIC channel, normally anyone can listen or transmit over that channel. As with most walkie talkies and wireless points there is somesort of way to block out other peoples convo. If you dont take the little effort it takes to put up some sort of securety for them then you cant get mad then some unknown joins the convo
