    We have neighbors who never

    We have neighbors who never pay for internet service. They just use the non encryption signals in our area. They've been doing that for years. Anyone can do that. All you need is the little atenna (you can buy that anywhere) that can catch it. Kind of like the free microwave "bubbles" that are everywhere for free cell phone usage.
