MSNBC reported earlier this week about a home in Buffalo NY that was raided by police who accused the owner of downloading thousands of child porn photos.
The raid happened in March, and after about a week, the police arrested a neighbor who was the real ********* (case is still pending). The report goes on to cite other 'horror stories' that people got into for not securing their wifi. You can read the full report here:Lying on his family room floor with assault weapons trained on him, shouts of "*********!" and "pornographer!" stinging like his fresh cuts and bruises, the Buffalo homeowner didn't need long to figure out the reason for the early morning wake-up call from a swarm of federal agents.
That new wireless router. He'd gotten fed up trying to set a password. Someone must have used his Internet connection, he thought.

So if you have wifi in your home, make sure its password protected and secured!!!
