A guy at the DMV in Reno told me his whole life got hacked from one coffee shop WiFi, and I checked my phone right there
He said someone grabbed his bank login in 6 minutes at a cafe on Virginia Street last month, and all he did was check his email without a VPN. Now I turn my WiFi off in public unless I really need it, does anyone actually use a VPN on their phone or is that overkill?
grabbed his bank login in 6 minutes" sounds like a story that got better with each retelling, honestly. In my experience the sketchy part is fake hotspots that look like the cafe wifi, not the real one. Your mileage may vary but I've never used a VPN on my phone and I'm still here.
