you get the choice of sharing with your friends. and it is specifically your friends only that get that information. My concern is if i bring my friend over and he is sharing his wifi ap information I do not get the option of who he shares with, just if it is shared. MS has said they are working on improving this feature due to concerns, but for now _optout is the only option.
