Jobs says iPhone users can piggyback WiFi networks

It's well-known that a major criticism of the iPhone is its lack of 3G support so Apple head Steve Jobs told The Wall Street Journal last week that WiFi should give consumers a speedier alternative, and then he suggests that users could steal WiFi access from someone's unsecured WiFi network, Glenn Fleishman at Wi-Fi Net News noted.  

"Most of us have Wi-Fi networks around us most of the time at home and at work. There's often times a Wi-Fi network that you can join whether you're sitting in a coffee shop or even walking along the street piggybacking on somebody's home Wi-Fi network," Jobs said. We've already seen folks get arrested for stealing WiFi access.
