    Why is it even legal for it to just hop open networks automatically? Sure, if you leave your wifi unsecured you’re dumb and anyone can access it, but it’s still not a network you have permission to access

      I don’t think it’s illegal. The TOS could just be saying “If you connect me to the internet you consent me upgrading myself.” It doesn’t say how hard it’s allowed to try to connect.
