Apparently a true story... that combination of good and evil that mom warned us about before we opened up our access points to anyone within range, has now been realized...

In Toronto, Canada, this week:

  After pulling the man over, Sgt. Don Woods discovered the man was naked
  from the waist down as he downloaded images on a laptop computer of a
  young girl involved in a sex act with an adult.  Investigation showed the
  man had hooked into a wireless computer network at a nearby house to gain
  access to a resident's Internet connection and download images from child
  pornography Web sites.
