Now, as far as running the network open,in a number of states,
including Alabama, it is against the law to access an open network

jail for it.
On the other hand, they may have their computer set to associate with
any open access point and not even know that they aren't on their own or
one they are permitted to use. That doesn't make it legal, but when
they don't understand the situation they aren't likely to change. I'd
recommend using at least WEP encryption which should be easy enough to
set up on your own machines. It isn't great protection but it will keep
people from connecting by accident.
