Not if you live in the city with loads of wifi signals around you, you have a cantenna, and for absolute emergencies you have a satellite dish to rig the cantenna to to get increased coverage.
As for satellite internet everywhere you go...I pay £10 a month for that, infinite texts, infinite internet, and 250 minutes of call time. It says you aren't supposed to tether under this plan but they've never said anything. Their actual tethering plans are outrageously priced.
they seem to be a pretty good company. I rang them to have the 18+ block removed, they said I needed to key in driving license or passport numbers to prove my age. I own neither of these things. After some talk, I challenged them to quiz me on eighties pop lyrics, and to post pictures of my original Transformers toys from the eighties, even though this would mean a trip up to my parents, to prove my age.
They relented and removed the content lock.
I bought an old, sturdy years old phone I know has a couple of good features. Can share it's internet connection via wire or bluetooth easily. So I can just have my phone in my pocket, feeding the internet to me, whether on a train or in a park. One of my local parks, I've actually cracked a wireless signal there anyway, so I don't have to worry about that. Good for a sunny day...go hang out in the park, drink, read the internet on the grass.
If I'm ever using the connection from my phone in my pocket, that means I have my wifi card free to have a bash at whatever networks are around. If I think there's another one I want even though I have a connection, in case of emergencies, I'll bring another USB wifi card.
My desktop has four wifi cards, so I can scan/attack a number of different channels at once, and one of those connections is a cantenna.
Wifi is the best thing to happen to the average net nerd. This sure beats hacking a load of AOL email accounts via clicking forgot password, then using those passwords to use dial-up (yes, email passwords where the same as dial-up passwords) with a long list of people, who they were, where they lived, and when they were most likely to be asleep.
There hasn't even been anyone prosecuted of wifi cracking yet. Well, not purely for that. When a couple of assholes have cracked their neighbour's connection than made death threats supposedly in their name, they get caught out and bitchslapped. Even more laughably, there have been a few cases over open wifi spots.
But encrypted ones? Nothing based on just connecting to them.
Anyway, even if you want to catch me, I have complete control of your router. All logging is off. I spoofed my MAC address. You have no idea where the fuck I am. You probably don't even notice or check if anyone is there, do you? You thought, "I use WPA/2 and a 63 random character long password. Good luck cracking that asshole! I never need to check anything again."
Well you do.
