Now here is a scary story - both of the failure of
a police officer and a prosecutor to exercise their
responsibility to exercise reasonable discretion and
the less-than-wise legislators in writing such sloppy
law.

In any case it suggests that we need to know the local
laws and regs before accessing what appear to be "open"
or "public" Wi-Fi networks.
