It's not stealing, but it is potential access to sensitive data. Stealing implies that they no longer have use of the thing, which is not the case here, unless you use so much bandwidth that they are impacted negatively by that. Then, it is stealing.
Otherwise, if you want an analogy, it is like a light. Your neighbor has his home lit well, and the light spills over into the front yard, and onto the sidewalk. Now, are you just walking on the sidewalk, or are you peering in-between the gaps in the blinds to see what lies inside?
