I know you should never say never, but in this case I will... it will NEVER happen where it will be illegal to have an unsecure connection. I would note the exception of New Hampshire, where one must legally secure your connection.
House Bill 495, effective 1/2004, defines an operator's failure to secure a wireless network as a form of negligence, and puts the burden of securing WiFi networks on the corporate or home user.
Joyriders, war-drivers, and whackers have legal loopholes here, and the WiFi equipment owner can be held liable in court for any activity that a connection is used for if they do not exercise due care in securing it, and due diligence in maintaining it as secure.
