Not sure what the actual legal status is (to my knowledge nobody as actually been sued over here for using somebody else's WiFI or at least no cases decided yet), but I tend to say WEP is more like a "KEEP OUT" sign. It doesn't stop anybody who's willing to use a tiny bit of energy on getting in, but it signals that you did not intend for all the world to use your equipment. -- Peter N. M.
