WiC is a daring concept. People are not worried about just "sharing wifi/email/corporate password" but the real concern is implications that can arise due to the misuse of resources. Sharing your WiFi is risk because you are sharing your router to an unknown person who may have all sort of intentions; from general browsing to news channels to monitoring your wifi camera and intruding Government systems. If WiC's app can be a guardian against all these, this would become a great project.
Good point, there should be some security in place so that the person you are sharing your wifi with wont be able to access devices on your home network.
Hey,
Since our main aim is mass adoption, we have made it extremely
easy and secure for the users. They don't need to worry about security concerns since if you have seen our app demo, you will realize that the end user does not have to do anything except click on a WiFi and buy it. The
app does the rest and connects directly without exposing any details (including the password) to the end user. Also
this is all encrypted and transmitted in a safe manner. Hence, users don't need to worry about anyone accessing their devices from the shared WiFi.
Also, there is no real incentive for anybody to use our app for wrong purposes as it would be better and easier for him to just use a free public WiFi rather than download our app, buy WiC, then find an available network, then hack our security and do something wrong.
Hope that clears any doubts.
Thanks!
