Its certainly a sticky subject; but suppose the following situation exists:
You are a student at a university somewhere in the United States. You live at said University. You have the right to use internet there, but it only available through unsecured wireless. Would it be ethical for someone/some company to packet sniff the wireless traffic, without your consent (or knowledge)? Would it be ethical for the University to packet sniff the wireless traffic without your consent (or knowledge)?
Even assuming its unethical though, given the current ruling both situations would still be legal. How do you feel about the above?
