There is a business I walk past every day and when you look in the window you can see wifi login creds and her name and password. Ive considered saying something but then I’d have to explain why they shouldn’t do it and argue with them that its important.
Plus they’re property managers so i would laugh if they got hacked.
There was a common issue with a local ISP that their default wifi router passwords were based on the router’s MAC address.
I scanned the wifis I could reach from my flat and found one that was vulnerable. Now I didn’t know who that wifi belonged to. I would have had to knock on everyone’s door, asking everyone if it’s their wifi. Couldn’t be bothered doing that and looking stupid doing so.
So instead I logged into their wifi and from there into their router config web page (it also had the default credentials admin/admin) and changed the SSID to [old SSID]_hacked.
The day after they had changed the SSID back and changed the password.
Realistically if the company fails due to their terrible cyber security practices there’s a high chance their properties will just be sold to an even larger property management firm

Nice, that’s actually a pretty clean whitehat way to do it.
Fr, I would have torrent some movies
Hack them and assign all the properties to your name.
