Wireless systems that can be purchased for as little as $100 have built-in 
security features, but some people don't activate them when setting up,

"And some run up hill and down dale, knapping the chucky stones 
to pieces wi' hammers, like so many road makers run daft. 
They say it is to see how the world was made."
Sir Walter Scott, St. Ronan's Well 1824
