Wi-Fi Sense in Windows 10: Yes, it shares your passkeys; no, you shouldn’t be scared
 
Windows 10 comes with a neat new feature called Wi-Fi Sense, which lets your PC automatically connect to Wi-Fi networks that your friends and acquaintances have previously connected to, even if you don't know the network password.

First, a bit of anti-scaremongering. Despite what you may have read elsewhere, you should not be mortally afraid of Wi-Fi Sense. By default, it will not share Wi-Fi passwords with anyone else. For every network you join, you'll be asked if you want to share it with your friends/social networks.

With that out of the way, let's talk a little bit about how Wi-Fi Sense works in Windows 10.
