how are they gunna know?

Most routers have a control panel and the name of the PCs and devices connected to the device are listed. As far as I am aware, you can get people fined but sometimes they blame you for leaving it unprotected, which is a terrible excuse really

[Naruto!]

how are they gunna know?

when their internet slows up? when they exceed their download limit?
when they are questioned for downloading child pornography?

I don't use anyone elses and my own is locked. If you don't lock it then you're basically letting everyone share your connection.

Nah because it would annoy me if it was other way round.
