you’ve used the wifi once

No. You don’t understand. The OP was literally connected to their neighbor’s wifi WHEN THEY SET UP THE HOMEPOD. This is entirely on the OP, and Apple is not responsible for them mooching off their neighbor.

Some don’t read so good:

(From the 10/31 way back page)

“Apple Security Bounty reward payments are made at Apple’s sole discretion and are based on the type of issue, the level of access or execution achieved, and the quality of the report.”

“Sole discretion” actually means something, sport.

With this post you’ve assured you will never be paid and may be sued.
