I've only used someone else' wifi when my connection was down.
I never even thought of checking whether or not anyone was stealing my net for a year... turns out, a lot were.
I mac-assigned, and that works well. The routers wifi no longer works, and they cost too much to replace, so the laptops in my house now use cords.
I checked my neighbors one day, 14 people were on it... I live in a retirement community...
One of my brothers didn't pay for his wifi for years. Just used anyones and everyones who was unprotected.
I have never attempted to break into a secure network though, or use a sniffer for hidden networks. I have had no reason to.
