just to mark all non encrypted Wifi as insecure and mark everything with WPA2 
as secure is too simple. The most bars I now have also a WPA2 secured Wifi, 
you the the password by asking are looking into the papers laying around. But 
I never would trust those encrypted Wifis. Everyone you have the password can 
see my traffic, and as those bars never changing their password... I would 
like to see a way to tell the computer "kontact and owncloud-client should 
only be active for my home by default". Otherwise ask me, if they should go 
online. And at second level it would be nice to say, if I'm not at my home 
connection kontact should use this VPN to connect...
