Weak passphrases

"WPA with a weak passphrase (like most people use) is easily broken"

Any encryption method with a weak passphrase is easily broken. People need to be educated into using a phrase and some numbers together.

If education isn't possible, perhaps people need to be issued with physical keys of some kind that automatically assign a strong passphrase to the owner's devices.
