In a Swedish forum, someone pointed to instructions about how to cheerfully play a prank with uninvited guests to your wifi network.

Has anyone here tried these things?

Yeah, you're right. It's not only Thanksgiving time in the U.S. but also weekend here in Dubai. :)

While totally wired at this point, that almost moves me to get wifi just for the fun of it.

Maybe if I ever get another WiFi Connection running I'll use it. :0

the blur one... they won't know they've been pwnd, but they'll feel the pain.

except for turning or blurring pictures, or redirecting http requests to kitten wars?

Hmm. Any request for *.jpg or *.gif could be redirected to a black 1 pix picture.

Oh, I know, pull text (except tags) through ROT13 :)

Own Preferred Web Site to direct them to.

Now how about a site like [b]How to Cook that thieving Bastard who is stealing my Internet for the most tasty meal possible?[/b] :D

Or how about the Cannibal Cook Book?

Any of those hits look interesting and should make the thieves think twice before trying again. :^0

Actually I'm now thinking about pulling out my WiFi Access Point and plugging it in. Pity I really don't have the time to waste playing around. :_|

Aside from ROT13, there is leetspeak, lolspeak, Morse... You could run the text through Google translate if Google did not suspect an "attack", as it does, after two or three translations.

What about injecting alternate CSS?

How about a rotating list of crazy sites (truly crazy, or gag crazy)?

Reminded me: Once upon a time, some 20 years ago, freshmen at the technical high school got the task to collect signatures against "the recently revealed fact that the city was adding dihydrogen monoxid to the water". Quite a few people did sign the petition. :)

Unless the intruder has some interesting web server on his own computer, this won't give much. (It would simply be easier to encrypt the network and not let him in).

- the redirect back to their own system 127.0.0.1

or

- the page that says "I will find you"

by tobif

If all dns requests are captured and resolved to localhost, then, for most people, internet simply won't work, unless someone is smart enough to set up a vpn tunnel to a predefined ip address, after which all will be just fine.

The other one could be a bit better.
Hmm. One could even count down.
"Unless you disconnnect in 29 minutes" and so on...

by seanferd

The IP address for kittenwar.com needs to be updated. 205.196.209.62

Very cool.

by who am i really

of the redirect back to the local system:
[b]no connection here, go away[/b]

the other one was for 30 Seconds not minutes

You have 30 seconds to disconnect from My Wireless
...

I though of another redirect page

a spoof page:

[b]"Thank you for visiting the FBI's remote system scanner:

now scanning . . .
Found: 12,500 illegally shared files
Found: 10,000 illegal KP images
Found: 14,345 deleted files
Scanning Deleted files for illegal media etc. . . .[/b]

and have at the bottom of the page

[b]you may cancel this scan any time,

by getting off of my wireless network[/b]

"Now uploading all files"
followed by a counter whizzing through file names and paths, and a progress bar...

It should be scary enough to get them the hell offline, and yet cryptic enough not to be disbelieved off hand.

And they'll be forever wondering which of all their files were uploaded to godknowswhere for godknowswhich nefarious purpose...

by oh smeg

Apparently they got thousands of people to sign a partition demanding that the [i]dihydrogen monoxid[/i] be removed from the Town Water immediately.

Even the Media got involved helping the protesters. :D

Super Pure Dehydrated Water. As they are so light the transport is cheap and I'm moving lots of them at the moment.

I can not get over just how many people claim it's the best water that they have ever drunk. It's good to have such a [b]Pure Product[/b] to sell. ;)
