Nobody in the UK has ever been arrested for this

Nope.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/07/25/uk_war_driver_fined/

"A man was last week fined £500 after a British jury found him guilty of using a neighborhood wireless broadband connection without permission. Gregory Straszkiewicz, 24, was also sentenced to a 12 months conditional discharge after he was convicted of dishonestly obtaining an communications service and related offences at London's Islewoth Crown Court"

Your chances of getting in trouble are about 0.0000001%

That's probably true though.

Hmm I saw an article last week saying someone arrested in thailand (?) was the worlds first arrest for this, obv they missed this one.

Still, very remote risk.

That's the level of professionalism you can usually expect from the average journalist. The thinking is probably, "I haven't heard of that before, this must be the first one".

 Grin I said the average journalist, obviously any journalist that plays poker is a superior class of hack.
