What if you wanted to let someone know. What if you just mentioned to one of your co workers and said, hey someone needs to know this. Then the next day your co-workers squeals and you are led out in cuffs.

What no contract between you and a coworker. People talk, this guy got a raw deal in my book.

It's his fault for not having a contract in his back pocket? The news article doesn't tell the whole story and never will. I say to hell with this wireless a--holes. If they went up with no WEP or MAC filtering that is their fault.

Yeah he should have gotten a signed contract. But what if he wanted to get a contract. Then his boss, says well how do you know this? Hmm, umm well let me show you my NS logs. BAM - busted.

This story sounds incomplete to me. My support goes for Stefan Puffer. He just wanted to let someone, anyone know that they were wide open.

I am in his boat. Becasue I don't have my CISSP, nor do I have a track record of penetration testing, nor do I have certs in being a Net Admin, I know what am doing. But there is no one to tell of the open AP's at my work. If I do I may be another Stefan Puffer. So now thousands of peoples info is flying through the air, why, because there is no one that I can get to "sign a contract" so I can show them how wide open they are.

So on they will go exposing thousands US citizens information clearly through the air. Just becuase I can't hang a shingle over my head that says, "Security Analyst". Life ain't fair sometimes....
