    WiFi Liberator Ends Tyranny of Pay-Per-Use Wireless

    liberator_pic.jpgNothing is more annoying than plopping down in a coffee shop with your laptop and trying to connect to the WiFi only to be told that you need to pay some ridiculous amount like $9.99 to use it for 24 hours. I'm buying your overpriced coffee, the least you could do is let me use your WiFi without gouging me for a quarter of what I pay per month at home.

    Well, this WiFi Liberator has cheapskates like me in mind. The sneaky device is designed to "liberate" pay-per-use wireless networks, hijacking the signal and distributing it for all to enjoy. It even has a built-in moochproofer, forcing anyone who uses it to share their access with those around them. Sounds great to me, who cares if its legality is clearly dubious? Bring on the WiFi Liberator!
