Comment on What we give away when we log on to a public Wi-Fi network

Comments

I've read about this kind of thing before, so when I'm in public, or even at school I prefer to fire up my phone's personal hotspot instead of using any public wifi available.

That's good, because now you are just broadcasting your phone's SSID & MAC everywhere. ;-)

Seriously, just VPN over the hotspot.

You have too much trust in your VPN provider.

Considering I look at his face in the mirror every morning when I get up, I feel like that trust is justified.
