 | if it is copyrighted, it is still considered piracy. The RIAA won't know you downloaded it, but the neighbour - so - you had best hope he doesn't know you are doing it. It's like borrowing his screwdriver and not saying,.. or using his water main to water your grass. |

I totally agree that he's asking for trouble by not securing his network, but car theft is still theft if the owner left the keys in the car. |

If you online actions were to get traced down it would be traced down to him.
