I guessed your WIFI password, I accessed your network without your consent. I needed time to afford my own. You caught on quickly and did nothing. You deserve an apology, and a payment. What I did was wrong and undignified. —Faith in Humanity

OP ‘Fess up. Guilt will destroy you.
OP: Perhaps your neighbour knew someone hacked into their computer but couldn’t prove exactly who it was, so kept it to themselves.
They should have changed the password
^^Victim blaming.
nortintervale: good job victim blaming , you must also work with Mental Health?
Bellemore: Some people are terrible liars.Which may explain how the perp.’s neighbour knew he was hacking her computer.
Missed His most resent attempts to CYA and yet another go at discrediting me.
sHAME
In answer to the post: Yes. Yes you should apologize. Technically, you committed ‘theft’.
And also yes, if it had mattered to the neighbor that much, they should have changed the password or approached you. But obviously, it didn’t rank very high on the care-o-metre.
They didn’t know they had been hacked.
It says “you caught on quickly…”. That would indicate they either discovered it on their own or the original poster came clean.
Too bad the post doesn’t really have much on the line of details.
Who gives a shit?
