DataOne - Using Others Account!

[prasanna7287]

Recently i went to my friend's home, i saw him sing his friend's dataone account. He went to the modem home page: 192.168.1.1 changed his username and password to his friend's account. Then he started to browse.. all the downloads and uploads went into his friend's account!! i was amazed.. is this allowed??

am i allowed to change my username and password to my friends.. and use it??

if ur friend tells u dat u can use his account for accesing d NET den nobody has any business raising objections

Well if he uses the internet with his friends a/c, won't his friend be able to know abt it soon??

It is against the terms and conditions to do so and line binding is soon taking place. I can't carry out the task in my city already.

if the friend has given him permission to use his account then even if he comes to Know about it [service records] it will not make any difference

 

[prasanna7287]

yes.. i have my friend's permission and he has given his username and pass to me ..
so i'll start experimenting..

thanks for the help..

is that legally allowed??

It is a offence according to the IT Act 2000

Internet time theft
This connotes the usage by an unauthorized person of the Internet hours paid for by another person.

It is a offence according to the IT Act 2000

it wud b illegal if u do it without ur friend allowing u 2 do it

if ur friend gives u his username and password and asks u 2 use his account then he is authorising u to use his account so then there is no question of unauthorised usage

but yarr the personwho came to my place BsNL guy , uses his(dont know whose)
pass and usr to demonstrate that it is working

without entering his pass or in modem page

even i can connect to dataone , even if my modem page does'nt show my username and pass

What about port binding ?? Is it there or not ??

I heard BSNL has port binding at most places..
