Does Windows 10 automatically connect to unsecured networks it finds?

Wifi-sense strikes again! Windows 10 May Share Your Wi-Fi Password with Facebook

I wonder what else it's doing behind your back?

Got Duct Tape?

Wifi sense has to explicitly be told, "Share this with this contact,"

So how does that happen when he doesn't have Win 10 installed yet?

If you use the default settings, it does. WiFi Sense could also be to blame. Win 10 has several interesting WiFi settings that I turn off on any Win 10 comp I come into contact with.

How do you know it didn't find a way?

I recall fixing someone's computer ten or fifteen years or so ago who then asked, "What happened to my wireless internet?" I asked to see their DSU, was told they didn't have one.

After talking with her for a while I realized that someone had built wardriving software into AOL's client, and it was connecting to her neighbor's WiFi by cracking WEP.

That was disturbing. And exactly the sort of thing one would expect of an untrustworthy corporation.

Windows sees all.Windows knows all. Windows does not need petty things like 'internet'. It is 2016,and there is time for Windows,your only friend.Trust in Me.

Windows 10, designed to connect to the NSA behind your back even when you pulled the cable. Now imagine that you are a big enterprise and one of the Windows 10 PC's opened a wide open security hole by connecting to the wifi of the neighborer.

Windows 10 is one giant worm.

That is exactly why I have no Wifi on my PC.

It could have been downloaded a long time ago and was waiting in the wings for the go-ahead. Microsoft did not roll out 10 upgrades to everyone at once. The upgrades initiated in batches AFAIK. Did you notice ~8GB mysteriously disappear from your laptop at any point prior?

Your PC will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Man, am I glad I never upgraded to windows 10. I'm on win7 with that new update they pushed and every possible telemetry to microsoft turned off via hosts file or uninstalled update. My ram use is under 500mb when idle. I genuinely recommend rolling back to windows 7 or 8, or installing linux.
