Not to be confused with Wi-Fi Gypsies
A person who travels around in a caravan or more likely white transit
van looking for free or unprotected Wi-Fi points, wherever
people stupid enough not to have a firewall may
go. Unlike Wi-Fi Gypsies, if you cross their palm with bandwidth, they
will steal your bandwidth, your collection of porn and CD keys and most probably your paypal account details.
Another key difference between Bandwidth
Pikeys and Wi-Fi Gypsies is that Wi-Fi gypsies can trace their origins to travelling laptop users frequenting Romanian porn sites. In contrast, Bandwidth Pikeys have no
history and if traced are often found to have a criminal reccord.
Bandwidth Pikeys use cracked versions of both Windows Vista and Windows ME, it is thought that the shitness of these operating systems may be linked to the Bandwidth Pikeys bad temperament.
Hardcore Bandwidth Pikeys may be seen running other operating systems, this is usually an indication that they have not only stolen Wi-Fi, but also a laptop to access it with.
A Bandwidth Pikey was recently spotted in the Wetherspoons closest the train station in Milton Keynes, where he ordered a pint of Fosters, unfortunately spoons were out of fosters and he was forced to make do with a pint of Carling which really isn’
t the same
thing.
To vent his frustration, said Bandwidth Pikey downloaded cracks for Photoshop v3, Dreamweaver, Hackingtosh and most horrifically... hello kitty island adventure. He also forcefully gained access to
12 Gmail accounts (which are now on his
spam distribution list) and 3 eBay accounts. “Merry
Christmas you’ve just bought me a macbook pro running OSX snow leopard”
