Startups, sure, but <1% of people are running such startups I imagine. So it's fair to say this isn't relevant to most people?

- nine_k 3y agoMany elaborate scams are not relevant to most people, but only to people with money. Most phishing attacks are not relevant to most people, only to people in some important enough positions, or with access to interesting enough networks. But the damage of such attacks is still large enough to care.

- dataflow 3y agoI guess, to clarify, what I'm trying to get at is, should someone who hears "this computer/router/whatever supports WPA{N+1}, whereas that one just supports WPA{N}" factor that into their purchasing decision or not. And the answer I see seems to be, "if this is just for your household use, then no, unless you have reason to believe someone in your proximity would try to hack you".
