Seems like all of the security "threats" that I've read about recently have something to do with using a sensitive service on an unencrypted WiFi network. In reality, it's not advisable to be doing any banking or anything else really on an open network that you positively do not want to gamble on. Good to hear PayPal took action and is fixing it right away. On the flip side, a silly issue like that could have been caught with proper security auditing practices.
