Cable connection Security
Hey folks !
I have a cable line internet connection.The same coaxial cable that is used for sending
ordinary TV programmes is used for hooking up to the internet.Now Isn't it possible for any
ordinary TV suscriber to get free access to the internet by just getting an ordinary cheap cable
TV subscribtion and a cable modem and just spoof the MAC address of a legitimate user?????
Is there any possible way of tracking a hacker who has spoofed his MAC
address ??? :confused:

Sure, there is. And on some countries you can go to jail doing that.
Remember you cant hide yourself from everybody forever.
