on 10/26/2007 Oh look at that! It's always the ones with no/next to no articles who always criticize negatively. Isn't that great?! Let alone the ones who cannot spell! Apparently, this is a great way to save such of an enironment because if every house on one block had a router, we'd make an extra four tons of carbon dioxide each month. Plus sharing is caring!

If someone logs into your network from home and performs anything illegal it is YOU who will take the rap, not them as the lawyers of whomever will not care what computers logged onto the netowrk; just that you are responsible for it.
Panara and McDonalds manage this by having the users click a disclaimer and then logging their computers information to immediately directly legal responsibilities to you.
