Precisely why mine is "open".
As long as someone isn't doing something illegal, I don't mind sharing my 1M/1M internet connection...
and I did netsec for 5 years.
With that said, if that same AP was inside a bank or similar ReallyDumbPlace(tm) to put an access point, I'd have a problem with wide open, poorly secured APs.
Wardrivers and others who think they are l33+ by haX0ring and "stealing" bandwidth from people like me who give away their access and think the internet should be free for everyone just don't get it.
