#22Fun story about one of the devices mentioned there that I worked on. We used to store the saved wifi creds in a file named exactly what the SSID was. Some user managed to break things, and with their permission we gathered detailed wifi logs and found they were connected to an SSID that was an ASCII depiction of the equation: [redacted] plus [redacted] equals [redacted]. The issue was the forward slashes, presumably…

In this case, it sounds like the files were on a device owned by the user?
