My first reaction after reading this:

"Devices will only collect and send information to each other based on 
permissions the device’s owner has granted. For instance, if you were to 
configure a social app like Facebook to receive and send proximity notices, 
then Wi-Fi Aware would only pick the Facebook notices out of constant signal 
chatter, ignoring messages from all other apps.”

was to laugh just a bit to myself.
