Not until they prove something was actually done with the data. Now if this
software stuff on the car was using the open network to connect to google
and send packets on the fly, that would be considered steeling wifi and
could face criminal actions from ISP's. That's gotta be almost impossable
though unless stopped at a traffic light or something allowing enough time
to be assigned a IP from the network.
