    A scientist was necessary to find this out? ROFL

    Each of us know that using a Wi-Fi-Direct ( 802.11.x ) connection, which doesn't require a central Access Point - as this is common technique today: Smartphone => computer <= smartphone - you can spread any virus; outdoor <=500 mtr, indoor <=150 mtr.

    You mean even the current encryption of our wireless connections is not secure? I think it is secure enough but not hacking proof. Some hackers have dedicated their lives to breaking systems that people have worked so hard to create it.
