Steal it man. I love my stolen cable, even though I rarely watch TV. It just makes me happy knowing that I stuck it to Ted Rogers in some insignificant way. It kind of went down like this:

Me-walk out of apartment to dispose of trash....notice that coax cable running into my apartment is not connected to 3 way splitter on outside wall. Connect coax =free cable for 6 mo.

Rogers: Disconnects cable, installs 'lock' fitting interupting my stolen signal, leaves me a friendly note offering free cable hook up if I subscribe today.

Me: Removes 'lock'. Takes into workshop, drills hole down center. Fabricates crude female and male coax connection for the signal wire and installs in center of 'lock'. Reinstalls 'lock'. Free cable for 2 years and counting (and I waived the cable hook up fee)
