Paint my Wif-Fi

"Security-conscious wireless users could block their neighbours from
being able to access their home network - without having to set up
encryption."

So instead of spending two minutes setting up encryption (5 if you're
going to restrict your AP to nominated MAC addresses) all you have to
do is repaint the entire house. I wonder why nobody thought of this
before?
