So, to prevent Google from stealing my data, I have to spend time and effort modifying my network and touching each and every device that connects to my wireless network?

Fuck off.

Or you could try not broadcasting your data on an open unsecured network so that ANYONE can "steal" your data. BTW it's not stealing if you're TRANSMITTING it out into the air.

Exactly. Anyone with a laptop can drive up and down the road
and capture all kinds of wireless info... including
routers, LRT and PDT info from the big box stores, etc...
If your transmitting it into the air its fair game.

Skyhook wireless has an application on their site looking for
drivers to drive around with their equipment to populate their
database. Its not just google driving around trying to feed
their databases of info that they are reselling for big profits.

Its all about what information you have and what you can sell it for.
