The suit, filed Monday in the Southern district of New York, claims that Internet service provider iNYC Wireless and London Terrace Towers, a residential apartment complex, have been illegally pirating and marketing Road Runner through a Wi-Fi network. http://news.com.com/2100-7351_3-5077922.html I do hope Time Warner loses this lawsuit. Should they win it sets bad precedent for those using NAT routers, and those who've opened up their WiFi service unknowingly or out of the goodness of their hearts. Why do you support stealing service?Because TW in it's TOS probably has an out that says if they do such athing, they will simply terminate service. I know Cox does.
