My WiFi network is not password encrypted but is MAC address filtered instead. Does this mean I'd fall foul of this law even though I've tried to secure my network?

Sounds like more legislation about IT made by legislation people who know nothing about IT.

Crickey, I didn't realise that posession of editing tools was a criminal offense.

Oh, perhaps "cracking" was meant instead...?
