For examples, see the RIAA's attempts and more recently the criminal investigations of child porn downloads from

their
provided access point is secure or unsecure BEFORE they serve their warrants to avoid further embarrassments. [It'll
probably
take another 6 months and more goofs before they realize that customers are perfectly capable of poorly installing their
own
access points behind ISP provided gear].
Exactly...what about those who choose WEP/WPA-TKIP for their 'secured' access
point?
I can just imagine being in front of a judge/jury after having been arrested for, as you say, "child porn downloads " and
listening to my law^H^H^H public defender explain the mechanisms of how the access point was 'cracked' and may have been
used by someone sitting in their car down the street.<shudder>
