Windows 10 “WiFi Sense” automatically leaks your wifi password to strangers
There's a lot of FUD & frankly inaccurate information floating around here.<p>When connecting to a password protected router you are given an UNCHECKED BY DEFAULT option to share the password with your friends. What this means is, the user can deliberately share the password they know.<p>This is just as secure as any other system because once you give a user a password they could share it if they chose. Nothing here is "automatic" no data is being proliferated without user consent. If your employees leak your password this way, then it's the same as leaking passwords otherwise.<p>Again this not an opt-in-by-default scenario. It requires a user knowing a password to actively choose to share for each router independently.
