War Chalking goes hand in hand with another questionable
activity called "Wardriving". Wardriving involves driving around
(or walking on foot) to find WiFi hotspots around your
neighbourhood or city, and connecting to them to see what's on the
network. Some people drive around to find home wireless networks
that haven't been password protected to use the internet for free.
War Chalking refers to when one of these individuals marks a symbol
on the pavement or a wall to tell other "wardrivers" that there is
an open signal there to be used. It evolved from another well known
system called "Hobo Code", where homeless individuals would mark
with chalk when a property is friendly, or has a vicious guard dog,
or might call the police, etc.

Wi-fi hotpots seem to be omnipresent these days. You can find
them in every commercial fast-food joint, starbucks®, library,
hotels, and even in your neighbor's houses.
The public ones are free, and many people take on the activity
known as "wardriving" to map out all these hotspots throughout an
area.
You can even tether a device to your phone and use it as a
router. Usually costs money for this piggyback service.
