Still, even if the encryption was very weak, wireless wifi sounds appealing to me, at least for my old trusty wired mouse. Somebody snooping on or spoofing my mouse seems like an academic threat.
You're not concerned that anyone within a 100 ft radius of you can inject arbitrary keystrokes/mouse movements to your PC?

1. Detect vulnerable networks in computers
2. Pretend to be a USB keyboard.
3. Trigger blind key combos that will visit a website, confirm downloading a file, execute that file, and "OK" privilege escalation prompts.
4. Move on to the next block or cul-de-sac, while the malware finishes unpacking and reporting home for further use.
