finding and logging into are 2 very different things. those that do
allow log on may do so on purpose, providing an AP to the public...
others may just have just left their AP's wide open unintentionally

Subject: [MLB-WIRELESS] Wireless vunerabilities?

Some attendees of HAL2001 describe of drive-by hacking where they drive
'round in cities like London, Berlin and San Fransisco armed with
laptops and wlan cards.
 
Supposedly they found all these a whole bunch of insecure wlans and at
least 5 vunerable hospitals in Berlin.
 
(My first post in ages, and it's off topic. Bah.)
