Given that WEP provides almost no security at all, you're suggesting that wanting a secure wireless network does not represent the common case? > and that an open wireless AP does not imply that > the users data is accessible, An open wireless AP where the user expected a secured one (and where the UI claims they have one) can lead to revealed user data in several different ways. > I'm downgrading the severity to important > as imho this reflects more appropriately the severity of this bug. Might I suggest instead marking it as grave due to the security implications but marking it as present in both testing and unstable so it doesn't affect propagation to testing? - Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
