IANAL, but...

...if the front door is not locked, is it ok to enter the house? Sit on 
the sofa? Watch TV?

...if a network does not require authentication, is it ok to browse it? 
Use the internet connection? The storage-server?

While it is stu...naive to have open WLANs, I would only use those who I 
know I am allowed to use.

vir[i|uses] ;)
