Re: cable company goofs up

No, it is not theft. "Active" or "Premium" theft means you're hooking up to the neighbor's cable line or using some type of unauthorized equipment. "Passive" theft is using unauthorized services without notifying the provider (for example: you move to a new house and the cable is still hooked up).

You've done your part to notify the provider.

i disagree. its still passive theft. passive theft is just that. you watch it when the cable company made a mistake and left it on. you can easilly unhook it and not watch it.
