Is it getting harder financially or is it just me?

Section 593d.
any person who, for the purpose of intercepting, receiving, or using any program or other service carried by a multichannel video or information services provider that the person is not authorized by that provider to receive or use, commits any of the following acts is guilty of a
public offense.

I think that you may be in the sticky gray area here. My guess is that the “service providers” service stops at the end of a wire entering the house, with a contract to provide a certain amount of bandwidth over that wire. The wireless access point likely belongs to the neighbor, and he can at his discression divy up his bandwidth with his own networking equipment any way he sees fit. Sharing with the neighbor would be no different legally than sharing with a family member/roommate. Steal access from Sprint or Verizon and the above would apply.

Aw, now you are throwing the book at us, tg. Good research.

EJ, I think that the controlling phrase is “…person not authorized by that provider…”

‘Inadvertent lemon recipient’ is not authorized by the ISP. Therefore, he is committing an offense.

The issue in retrospect is very simple.

You are living above median spending $800/month on groceries at Whole foods, you comment on unsavory areas for $1500/month rent and hence choose Rancho Bernardo at $2000/month.

The reality is that your income is average and you’re living above median. Median family income in SD county is $66K. Averge family income in SD County is $85K. Since you tithe, you are below that.

For San Diego City, it’s slightly higher at $67K and $87K.
I’d suspect Rancho Bernardo is even higher.

The crux of the issue, given the area you’re choosing to live in, you’re actual near or below median income and highly likely to be below average family income and already living above that in a few aspects of your life.

Or in a nutshell, you’re suffering from keeping up with the Joneses

Where are you getting your income stats, NSR?

The following is from the wiki on san diego county:

The median income for a household in the city was $45,733, and the median income for a family was $53,060. Males had a median income of $36,984 versus $31,076 for females. The per capita income for the city was $23,609. About 10.6% of families and 14.6% of the population were below the poverty line, including 20.0% of those under age 18 and 7.6% of those age 65 or over.

I think someone else mentioned this earlier, but a great way to save on your grocery bill is to join the Be Wise Ranch cooperative. It’s a great way to get really fresh, organic vegetables at a good price. I get the $20 box every other week and it supplies 95% of my vegetable usage.

Another analogy for the wireless signal would be if my neighbor had a really bright porchlight that spilled into my back yard. Would it be stealing if I sit and read on my back porch using the light from his yard?

At least he is not keeping up with the “towel heads”. Are you anti-semetic too?

I agree with lost kitty JG. Always thought you could use a couple of prunes in your diet. You are in rare form today though.
Excuse me I have to go build a cabana down in the ravine for the illegals passing through to sleep comfortably at night. Need to print more of these maps to La Jolla first.

Nice discussion all, Pretty impressive depth.
