I have yet to understand how having open WiFi poses a threat to anyone.

How do you figure?
Identify theft!
Consume your bandwidth!
Conduit for terrorists to cause havoc without being able to be found! (possibly making end users liable for havoc).

I believe a customer has just as much obligation and liabilty to to secure their networks as an ISP does. Or they are liable due to neglect.

If anyone is going to be war driving I would think it would be the
internet providers, since it's your agreement with them that is being
broken by leaving your WiFi unsecured.
