This prosecutor is doing exactly what you asked - the guy ended up with community service/fine as part of a diversion program. He didn't end up pleading guilty to anything, let alone a felony. The prosecutor in no way "went for the felony"

My apologies. I missed that. I saw the title and kind of skipped into the middle of the thread yesterday. I take it all back. This sounds like a fair result.

My laptop asks if I'd like to commit a crime before connecting to the unsecure network.

I always click "yes".

My understanding was they charged him with a felony and he pled it down. If he had fought the thing, it could have ended up as a felony. Is that not correct?

Internet at home (finally!), no more stealing for me!

I'm at Newark Airport, Terminal A, and I was too lazy to get my company-paid-for wireless card out of my bag.

Come and get me!

I am on an open wifi network at my shipper right now. No bagpipe band for me though, so the guy one-ups me there.
