Is there a way to see if a nieghbor has tapped into my router to use for their internet use?
You should have a problem.
You realize if someone is on your internet, they are getting one of the IP addresses that you are responsible for.
If Joe Smith drives near your house, gets on your internet, performs a DoS attack on FBI.gov - your a$$ would be held accountable.
Alternatively, they can sniff packets on your network and try to get encrypted data while it's on the way in/out which could contain sensitive information such as financial and the like.
I can't be held responsible for someone taking my signal undless I couldn't prove it wasn't my computer that did what was done, which I could always prove
as far as sensitive data, I don't transfer sensitive data over the internet
incorrect. If you leave the keys in your car or a loaded gun on the front porch and someone uses them to kill another person you will be tried for murder. The legal term is "contributory negligence".
the legal precedents don't exist, a prosecution would be novel and it would failThe legal precedents do exist. It also applies to products and companies. Do not believe? Ask the tobacco industry why it is paying hundreds of billions in fines, penalties etc. in spite of a warning on the side of the package.
You never shop over the INTERNET and use a credit card? You never bank or use a stock account? No site you access ever requires a SS number as a user ID? You don't pay bills on line or renew your car registration?
Think that if indited you will never be convicted. You are convicted by the very indictment process.
it would get tossed in a summery judgment IF a prosecutor actually tried to take you to trial... I could make the application myself if he did tryIt will cost you 10's of thousands to beat the charge (if you can).
good pointThere will be records spread all over the web, newspapers and government saying you were indicted. ... These records can be used to deny you employment or to terminate your employment.
It happened to my brother
Keep your doors locked, your tool shed locked, your guns with trigger locks and your INTERNET encrypted with the best WPA, hidden ID and anything else you can find.
