Why would they? People naturally like to share things. Although I've seen a couple of folk who were too poor to pay for their own connection, most computer users that I see just use a cable connection or ADSL or whatever their home connection is. They just don't have any reason to connect elsewhere and a lot of people don't even have any wireless capability. I really wonder where that 50% figure came from... I bet they just polled two people.
