Design principle DP2: Private-network module without shared secret keys

Provide the system with a module for users to initiate and maintain a private network without sharing secret keys in order to prevent decoding of the connection.

Source paper

This design principle is proposed by An Architecture Using Payment Channel Networks for Blockchain-based Wi-Fi Sharing (Christian Janiesch, Marcus Fischer, Florian Imgrund, Adrian Hofmann, Axel Winkelmann, 2023).

4 Design Requirements

design-knowledge/wifi-sharing-payment-channels-dr-au-lt

AU#LT - Legal risks and tarnished reputation

A Wi-Fi sharing network must address the risks imposed by illegal actions of network users, which can yield losses in reputation or legal implications for hosts.

S#B - Blacklisting

A Wi-Fi sharing network must prevent hosts' access points from becoming blacklisted by external service providers as a result of malicious user behavior.

S#RE - Resource exhaustion

A Wi-Fi sharing network must discourage users from conducting malicious actions using resource exhaustion against the host's shared bandwidth.

S#UPT - User profiling and traceability

A Wi-Fi sharing network's data processing must comply with data protection laws that prohibit techniques for user profiling and activity tracing.

An Architecture Using Payment Channel Networks for Blockchain-based Wi-Fi Sharing

The authors derive a comprehensive collection of 14 design principles for workable Wi-Fi sharing networks and propose a reference architecture combining a blockchain (for trust and immutable records) with payment channel networks (for fast, cheap micro-payments), augmenting current approaches with adequate accounting mechanisms.
