I disagree

You can't hold someone criminally liable unless there is a law against their actions already instated. As long as the user isn't required by law to activate the security, the user has the opportunity to claim in court that he was hijacked. Hackers have already gotten off on this defense in the past. Two things need to happen, better security and mandatory activation of the security.

Until then, I think I'll avoid using wireless.
