Would love to hear feedback on this idea and what end users opinions are of the product!

"...and only has internet at his house because I 'borrowed' his neighbors with the help of aircrack-ng and repeated it in his house."

This is superfluous to the primary subject of the article, but I have a really hard time respecting or upvoting a story that opens with a prideful statement that you're intruding upon your neighbor's network, despite their efforts to secure it.

Just because you can defeat your neighbor's deadbolt with a crowbar doesn't mean you should feel free to enter and enjoy the comfort of their home at your whim.

Yeah, that struck me too. I'm pretty sure that's definitely a pretty serious crime to be blogging about casually.
