The ethics of stealing a WiFi connection
Introduction There is a notion on the rise which is the stealing of WIFI and using it to access internet for several activities. However, then the point up rises is it ethical or unethical. First, tell it is unethical and illegal, to steal the neighbor 's WIFI network. However, if the case is that you want to learn how the systems can find more information on WIFI and avoid the WIFI from being stolen by your neighbors one have to put passwords and visibility options. Moreover, avoiding the unethical notions are very hard and creating the strategy that focuses upon the problems is more sort of a challenge, but the stealing of WIFI is an unethical issue which is seem to be increasing (Rowell, 2006).
Discussion If you knew your neighbors request leaves open the door of his house open when going to work, probably never consider to go home and watch channels premium cable without your permission. However, if you turn on your laptop and see that you can connect to your neighbor 's wireless network and Internet access for free, would be in an ethical dilemma. This is the notion because many people do not know how to protect their wireless home network. Thus, many people leave their networks accessed by an entire neighborhood or by people walking near their homes. One study found that 14% of wireless network owners have accessed the wireless connection to your neighbor. In some cases, people guided by a neighborhood looking for a house with open wireless and parked in front of the house for hours while surfing the Internet. Many have canceled their services to secretly use the stolen full-time connections. In many areas, the law on the unauthorized use is ambiguous or does not exist at all (Rowell, 2006). However, there is a notion that this type of theft, illegal or not is definitely unethical. Well the question
