I get my internet free off the neighbors - they live about 200' away..
I have a Lynksys antenna and a 15' extension cable that I bought off eBay.
If I had a laptop computer, I could just drive into town - McDonald's, Burger King, The Chinese restaurant, the other businesses all have free WiFi these days.
You see people sitting in their cars in the parking lot - harvesting the free Wifi and you see people driving around the neighborhoods looking for open routers to get free WiFi in a particular neighborhood.
There is even web sites that hackers runs that will have a map with locations where you can find free WiFi and or open routers.
If a hacker wants into your computer - you aren't going to stop them.
Most hackers today are located out of country.
China has a large population of hackers.
Surprisingly enough - most porn sites are secure.
The reason is because most Porn Sites are ran by hackers.
They don't need to see what is on your computer because they already know what is in your computer.
Target, Home Depot and other scares of hackers and people getting your credit card information isn't really a problem if you have no money or no credit. It is the same deal, most of those people does this just to show other people how smart they are.
When the hacker gets caught, they are usually given mild sentences and then hired by the companies that they hacked. Who better to inspect and repair your data warehouse then the person that hacked into it when you thought that it was secure. Some of these people ends up making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year as consultants.
