No, I agree that a reasonable level of security will make most hackers move on, and I would worry less about home system stolen data, than loss of/damaged data (there's not enough money for professional thieves to hack one system at a time, and the kid down the block will get caught fairly quickly) A greater danger from general lax security of WLANs is once in your system a worm could be sent to the net using your account. or set as the receiving/relay system for stolen data. It could be very unpleasant to have the FBI come knocking on your door/ taking your systems for anylisys even though it would eventually get straighten out.
I'm not sure not being the the most vunerable in your neighborhood is really being responsible.
And my point was wired is faster, usually cheaper, much more secure, maybe not quite as cool. |
