I would think that your telephone directory is compromising your privacy more than whatever info might be gleaned from your SSID and your MAC address. There you are, putting out your name, your address, your telephone number, even [sometimes] your marital status, for every nefarious ne'er-do-well to peruse at his leisure.

Heh. I don't know if that's possible where you live, but I simply opted NOT to be registered in the telephone directory. Saves me a lot of time from those pesky tele-marketing companies as well. smile
