I guess how secure the "open internet" is after it leaves your cable
modem or whatever is something only your ISP can tell you about (and I
bet they don't).

However, wardriving would appear to be a bigger thread than internet
tapping. The one requires a laptop and a car, something most teenagers
have access to. And if it's a neighbourhood teenager, he also knows
your address and name, making identity theft a significant risk.

The other requires a significant security breach at your ISP or at the
major carriers, and even then, they'd have to trace it back to you.
This at the very least requires more skill and equipment than the
average teenager drives around in his car.
