If he were a tech wiz, could he do it?              Depends.              That WiFi signal is probably not encrypted.              Then you have to use encrypted protocols like https to connect on the       web.

Usenet is often not encrypted.                     ...              --       Cheers, Carlos.       ES🇪🇸, EU🇪🇺;              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
