Cable Internet Installation Jesse 11-10-2005

Here is a kind of tricky question for anyone with knowledge pertaining
to the installation of cable internet in homes. Let us assume there are
people in the world who one way or another happen to enjoy free cable.
By this I mean, maybe they moved in a home hooked up their TV to the
cable jack, and what do you know it works. Lets also assume it has
been a couple of months and these people have never been contacted by
the cable company whatsoever. Now on to the question: If these people
are now interested in actually paying for cable internet, will their
free cable be noticed and therefore billed? In other words, if the
cable company comes over to do the cable internet installation, will
they somehow know the new customers have had free services for months
now? Or will the cable co. simply come out, hook up the internet,
leave, and only bill the people for the known new service? Thank you
all in advance for your help with this hypothetical question.

It showed the customer was accused of cable tv theft because there was
not a trap blocking tv therfor they were getting cable tv for free.
