The article is pretty scary, actually.
The article is pretty scary, actually. It totally misses the main issue with Wifi Sense: I may want to share my wifi password with my friend Joe, but not all of his acquaintances. And it's only a checkbox away for it to be shared almost publicly (some people have thousands of contacts!). There is this issue not mentionned in the article: in a lot of countries, the owner of the internet connection is legally responsible for whatever happens with their connection. Not only in north corea, also in countries like France. Will Microsoft take responsability if someone uses my internet link for illegal activities? Nope, because there will be no way to prove it's not me doing it. There are so many red flags with Wi-fi Sense, it's like Microsoft wants to perpetuate its tradition of pointless features involving security issues. Why Ars Technica published such a misleading article if beyond understanding.

I am very petty about this one bug and have a very old axe to grind that this reminded me of!
Not just the edge router.
