Only if you want it to be. If you want access to other people's home hubs you have to make access to yours available. It's known as BT FON. It's easy to check whether this has been set up on your hub by going into the hub (the URL is http://bthomehub.home/ on Home Hub 3, I'm not sure what it is on earlier versions). On mine it then says "BT FON: Not active on your BT Home Hub" on the first page that you're presented with. I also checked the wireless security on mine and it was set up as WPA and WPA2 from new as far as I can see (that's what it is and I haven't changed it). I've had my HH3 for just over a year. Of course computer game consoles (like the Playstation Vita I was surprised with for my recent birthday) also connect to the Web, but to do that the wireless key has to be entered into the device, so the home hub owner should know that that connection has been made.
