<SARCASM>Oh great, because a tool to parasite wireless connections which the
owners went out of the way to secure with the best available protocol is
EXACTLY what we need…</SARCASM>
Use of this tool is probably against the law in most of the world. (Some
countries even ban using unencrypted wireless networks without explicit
permission.) And I fail to see any legitimate use for this tool.
I don't think we should be making judgements about what people use
programs for. Otherwise where will it end? 'nmap'? 'cp'?
(And yes, I *do* want to run this tool on my own wireless connection
at some point now I know it exists)
