I agree with ya 110%, that the person who owns both the system
itself, as well as the hardware that makes up said system has the
right to find out just WHO has connected to their system.

The state of Fl, has recently expanded the "castle doctrine" to
include NOT only the use of deadly force in defending their home, but
also their car, boat, motorcycle, bicycle. Or themselves or others
IF they're walking down the street and are threatened.

One's property is "posted" by default, one does NOT need to go the
extra step of actually posting a sign. And in some cases such as IF
one already has a fence going around their home, further posting of a
sign that says "no trespassing" could make it in the eyes of the law
an "attractive nuisance."

Exactly, as am I. And I have done everything that I can think of to
secure my network. I'm asking/talking about those who THINK that
they know what they are doing, or presume that various pieces of
hardware are "secure" out of the box. . .
And/or the legal ramifications IF they don't secure their system and
someone connects to it with intent to break the law such as using
said connection to d/l kiddy porn, or to attack the computer
infrastructure of say a nuclear power plant, or a hospital. Thus
causing the loss of life.
