Re: Theoretical Discussion: Hotel WiFi Hack Since most people here seem to be thinking that I'm some sort of
malicious criminal, I'm no longer going to reply to this thread. Just a
few retorts before I leave:
I'm not a troll as John assumed. Search my name on the Internet -
you'll see.
I'm not interested AT ALL WHATSOEVER in stealing peoples' access,
kicking them off the network, disrupting their session, or anything
else of that nature to cause any inconvenience or harm to any user of
the network. This was a STRICTLY THEORETICAL discussion - if you don't
understand what that means, look it up. Plenty of great ideas and
contributions to society have risen out of a group of people tossing
around "what-if" scenarios. John, do you think the creators of the
"Stealing the Network" series planned to, or actually committed, any of
the events depicted in their books? And if so, why not? I'm curious to
know as to how you can believe them but not me. And they provided a
complete roadmap on exactly how to use and execute every single one of
the tools needed to accomplish a sought-after goal. I just asked for a
simple, intellectual discussion on different possibilities - not
step-by-step instructions on how to hack the hotel's network.
And I'll leave you with this: if I had really wanted to hack the
network, I wouldn't have posted something here - I would've asked in
one of the underground forums. And, consequently, I would know if you
post fake information.
Thank you to those who wanted to and tried to make an earnest effort of
contributing intellectually to this discussion. To the trolls in this
topic, think twice before you blow off someone as a black-hat hacker.
Sometimes, someone just wants to learn.
