Explanation

Jasager (German for "yes-sayer") is a rogue access point attack that automatically responds "yes" to any Wi-Fi probe request a client device broadcasts when searching for previously connected networks - making B correct, since the attack is entirely passive/automatic from the victim's perspective. Because Wi-Fi signals have limited range, the attacker must be within physical proximity for the victim's device to receive the spoofed response, confirming D. Option A is wrong because the victim never consciously selects the attacker's AP - their device connects automatically after receiving the crafted response. Option C is wrong because Jasager isn't random; it specifically targets probe requests for networks the victim already trusts, making the attack precise and stealthy.

Memory tip: Think of the German meaning - Jasager says yes to everything. The device does the connecting automatically (not the victim, eliminating A), and "yes" only reaches you if the attacker is close enough to shout it (D).
