'Evil twin' could pose Wi-Fi threat

Did you people even read this?: Guys, there are security auditing tools out there right now that allow me to setup a fake WIFI point that emulates a WIFI service provider. Once you authenticate to me, you send information to me directly that i can then use to connect to an actual access point and have free internet on your dime. Its quite easy to setup and take down.
