Ahem.
I have someone here who would like a word with you, sir. ::Cough Cough::
James Bond is not, as far as we can tell, into wardriving, therefore this is a contrafactual conditional, or "subjunctive" statement. The subjunctive form of the copula ("to be") happens to be "were," whether it is singular or plural.
I did not use the word "subjective" at all.
If I were you, I would read up on my grammar (that link should help) to avoid looking stupid, which is what you are.
