Lol. I had a joke like this some time ago, too. A wi-fi network was called "CIA_3883"
lol nice joke.
What does 3883 mean? Is that funny?
The CIA part is the most important.

Whenever I use my phone's Wifi hotspot feature (Android and unlimited Internet ftw.) I always set its name to "your kids are noisy" or "stop the f[censored] noise".

Actually this is illegal. According to an US law, copyrights only expire after 80 years, thing is the developers don't care about these builds and abandonwares anymore.

If we're talking about large corporations like Microsoft, they still care, especially if you sold any of their products. I seem to remember that a user on The Vintage Computer was explicitly told something like "No, you WILL NOT distribute our software" for something as old as Microsoft BASIC.

However, we're not selling anything, and we're not truly freely distributing anything (although it's close to that).

That SSID I posted disappeared a while ago, and I got a proper router, means I can now...
(I kept the SSID and WPA keys from my old router so I don't have to go through reconfiguring a wifi-enabled HDTV through the controller... painful, trust me)
