When was the last time you saw a completely open residential wifi access point in the wild? This seems a little like worrying about getting Dodo poisoning.

- JumpCrisscross 2mo ago> When was the last time you saw a completely open residential wifi access point in the wild? I have family who get frustrated with their home Wi-fi and about every other year conclude the solution is to unsecure the connection.
- SoftTalker 2mo agoI'm not sure Comcast would even let me do that today, though I haven't tried. I gave up running my own home router and WiFi a few years ago, they just made it too much of a PITA.
- tjoff 2mo agomaybe not residential, but if you are close to a coffee shop or bar or anything else that offers it...
- Mindwipe 2mo agoI genuinely don't recall the last time I saw one of those that didn't require me to at least go to a registration page to accept the terms and conditions in order to actually transmit any traffic.
- HeyLaughingBoy 2mo agoMine up until a few months ago. Didn't really care because you'd have to stop literally in front of my house to access it. And living on a street with only about 4 properties, that would merit a visit from me asking why you're parked in front of my house.
