![]() ![]() ![]() In the US, your ISP has enormous insight into your online activities. How do you know, for example, that "starbucks_wifi-real" is actually the Wi-Fi network for the coffee shop? In fact, a popular security researcher prank is to create a network with the same name as a free, popular service and see how many devices will automatically connect.Įven if you're inclined to trust your fellow humans (which we do not recommend), you still shouldn't trust your internet service provider (ISP). Public Wi-Fi networks, which are ubiquitous and convenient, are unfortunately also extremely convenient for attackers. This is true even if the snooper controls the network. When your VPN is on, anyone snooping around your network can't see what you're up to. ![]()
