If somebody spoofs my mac in order to get inside my home network, I'll take
it as a compliment.  ;-)  They must think I have something really important,
to go to that effort instead of just mooching off all the other unsecured
networks in my neighborhood!  Just like when you're wandering through the
jungle, and a gorilla decides to have its "way" with you.  Oh, gosh, I
didn't know I was so pretty!
