A smart way of preventing WiFi theft

wifi theft
Network administrators are always worried about WiFi theft AKA 'Internet piggybanking'. A WiFi theif can be anyone from an innocent person parking near your home to a smart neighbour trying to steal your bandwidth or hack into your computer.
If you have setup a small WiFi network at your home for personal use then you should pay attention to your WiFi network logs and look for mac address of all connected devices.
If you find unrecogonised devices in network logs then you are a a victim too. Here, I propose a simple but nerdy solution to keep people from connecting to your Personal WiFi network.
Just give your network a scary name. Yes, I'm serious. You can name your network like trojan32 or c:\virus.exe or any other scary name you come up with. This would prevent innocent people who unknowingly connect to your WiFi but for ultimate security you should implement a strong WiFi security model.
