Snippet 1:
"A Maryland man with a grudge against a Connecticut-based patent firm used
unsecured wireless networks at homes and businesses in the Washington D.C.
area to penetrate the company's computers and deliver untraceable threats
and extortion demands, until an FBI surveillance team caught him in the
act. "
Snippet 2:
"FBI agents traced some of the e-mails and intrusions to two homes and a
dentist's office in Arlington, Virginia. The residents, and the dentist,
made poor suspects, and the agents learned that all three were running
unsecured 802.11b networks."
Snippet 3:
"The FBI began following Tereshchuk, and in March a surveillance team
watched as he drove to a computer lab at the University of Maryland, where
he used a purloined student account to send more threatening e-mail.
"During this drive he was observed driving erratically and was paying a
lot of attention to something in the front passenger side seat," an FBI
affidavit notes."
