Title: Warn the user when connecting to an open AP which has been connected before as encrypted Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: Triaged Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: scenario: Bob works at an office which provides encrypted wireless for the employees to securely connect to the company network. Somebody outside the office sets up an access point with the same SSID but without encryption hoping that somebody from the company connects to it. Bob does not notice that the AP he sees in his indicator is in fact not encrypted and connects to the open AP thinking he is connected to the company secure AP and now all his sensitive traffic is exposed to the attacker.
