Not true ... privateers are essentially government sponsored pirates, but not all pirates are privateers. In this case, there is no government to sanction them, so they're pirates.

You've basically just described the written portions of the AP history, language, and literature tests given in the US. It should also be noted that AP scores are often used as "extra fluff" to distinguish between similar SAT scores/GPAs.

I'm fairly certain the SSID can be sniffed from captured network traffic. MAC filtering and DHCP limits only prevent an attacker from associating with your network (and the former can be circumvented fairly easily); they don't prevent an attacker from eavesdropping. However, if your password is >50 random characters, that will make a dictionary attack extraordinarily difficult.

Isn't it obvious that's where they hid their nuclear WMD facilities? ;)
