(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) yepp, if i were ever planning on doing something illegal on the web (which i'm not, of course), that's how i would do it. hijack someone else's wireless, get one of their IPs through DHCP, then go out and hack the crap out of my target. it all traces back to their wireless routers public IP and by the time the feds show up at their house, i'm long gone ... again, this is hypothetically speaking ...
