Is very different to the term Phreaking, and again different to the term Cracking. I would be amazed if you could actually hack into an unsecured router. its unsecured, thats like being arrested for breaking and entering after walking through a sensor doorway that opened as you approached a building!

An unsecured 802.11b/g connection is just that. No Hacking or Cracking required. I Know, as I'm using one now!

The hacking into unsecured Wi-Fi connections may have been taken from The Times of India, as they repeatedly refer to terrorists doing this. Their journalists write about terrorists and technology on a daily basis, but don't seem to know what they're talking about.

I was thinking the same. Does connecting to an unsecured Wi-Fi really denote hacking? Hell I use my neighbors to download all the time. His connection is quicker.
If it was secured and they hijacked it then thats different.

If the code they produce is any indicator, they don't.
