The best COSMIC fix ever, I can see how a problem like this stays in the code base for so long. There's only 2 cases where this realistically happens:Public networks which do authentication later than network joiningPsychos who have no sense of network security

@BrodieOnLinux Third case is devices that expose an unsecured network for first time configuration to let them connect to a secure one.

@BrodieOnLinux If someone wants to try to connect to my short range WiFi from outside the house I recommend they just kick my door in and hit me with a wrench. Is much easier. https://m.xkcd.com/538/@dutch_connection_uk
