"Late last month, a Siamese cat named Coco went wandering in his
suburban Washington, DC neighborhood. He spent three hours exploring
nearby backyards. He killed a mouse, whose carcass he thoughtfully
brought home to his octogenarian owner, Nancy. And while he was out,
Coco mapped dozens of his neighbors’ Wi-Fi networks, identifying four
routers that used an old, easily-broken form of encryption and another
four that were left entirely unprotected."
"WarKitteh": Now this is a clever way to bring these issues to people's
attention. After all, the Internet is made (of/for) cats!
