Dont usually post this stuff but this ticked me off..
Theirs about 3-4 unsecured wireless networks I can see at work everyday. They've been their months and I just kind of ignored them.
Today I decided I'd let one of them know as their place was right next door too me. So over I head and start explaining to the receptionist. Of course she has no idea and calls their "inhouse tech guy".
This guy was a complete dick. He didn't even want to know about it. What kind of an inhouse tech cant setup a basic wap correctly.
So i figured, you wanna be a dick when im trying to help.. Fuck ya then.. Went back over to my work.. Jumped on my laptop and printed out about 50 pages of his customer invoices and info. Maybe not the best thing but his wireless is completely open, with all his shares full access.. Cmon.. Grow a fucking brain.
Took those pages and found his boss. Told him this is what your "tech" guy is leaving open and isn't willing to fix.... The tech didn't care but the boss sure as hell did when he saw the pages I'd printed...
Just a quick story for you folks.. These type of people piss me off. If you dont know something and need help fine. But when someone offers it you dont act like a dick and be mucho while every document your company has is wide open..
Not to mention their in house file server is accessible from the WLAN. Put that thing behind a firewall or something.
Their lucky Im the one that found it and not someone malicous (not to say someone else hasn't). If I wanted to I could have gone nuts and just destroyed their business. Maybe they would have paid an extra $10 an hr for someone that could do the job then...
EDIT: Ohh did I mention his WAP password is still the default "admin"..
