A phrase that should be conveyed to reality is “There are two things you can not deny: a glass of water and a Wi-Fi network password."( do not ask me who the author is, it circulates on social networks)
At present, the internet is so valued that some countries already want it to be a basic right, such as the right to housing and access to safe drinking water.
Walking through the city of Luanda we find several good Samaritans who leave the Wi-Fi network unprotected. Passers-by hungry for an update on the Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and [add another social network], give thanks for the free message.
There is a country where being a good Samaritan can cause us problems. This country is the Germany.
It all began in 2010 when a court in Germany dictated the following verdict:
Netizens can be fined up to 126 dollars, if a third party takes advantage of their unprotected wireless Internet connection for illegal downloading of music or other files.
Private users are required to verify that their wireless connection is adequately protected from unauthorized access by third parties, thereby preventing them from committing copyright infringement
So you know, when you go to Germany and want to share your internet, do not forget the password.
What if this fashion catches up?
