Virgin Media to allow passers-by to freely access your WiFi router
https://thestack.com/cloud/2015/08/25/virgin-media-to-allow-passers-by-to-freely-access-your-wifi/
Last week it was revealed that this network would also
be powered, pretty much exclusively, by private WiFi routers.
The company explained that public users would connect to
customers' personal routers via a completely separate
connection, which it claims will not hamper performance or
connectivity speed, nor compromise security.
