Re: We knew this already...

Open wifi at home, or at a public place? If it's a public place, and I were with law enforcement, I'd contact the businesses in question and check security footage in and around the vicinity of the open wifi for people who might be accessing the system. If it were in a residential area, and I were investigating a crime, I'd try to get any information I could from the owner of the connection about who was accessing it at that time. I maybe couldn't find you specifically, directly, but I could sure narrow down the search.

You're in the minority. Most people aren't doing that. Most people have some kind of stable internet connection, at home, at work, etc. Though, I admit, that's definitely undergoing a shift as people get more and more mobile devices like iPhones and iPads. But with the sheer number of cameras around, I'd never be arrogant enough to assume no one could have at least a start on tracking me down. You're still leaving a trail on whatever connection you *were* using.
