Leaving it unsecured does open your computer up to theoretical hacking from outside.

If a neighbour uses it and puts you over your limit and Shaw cancels your account you have no recourse, or if they do something illegal on your account it could still be a problem. Securing it is trivial, so it's worth doing.
