You are viewing a single comment's thread from:RE: Why you need a VPNView the full contextView the direct parentash (74)in #privacy • 6 years ago you're right, and that's why you should use a VPN where needed (see my examples). for everything else there is TOR :)
Go TOR! I've fixed the list to my standards (especially important for #3 in my list - as the domain kinda gives it away)
problem is TOR is blocked on most free wifis, and you want to avoid the man the man in the middle. that's the reason why I use VPN in freebies :)
MITM doesn't really work nowadays unless the WiFi installs a certificate on to your computer, and that requires explicit permission from the user.
mh fair point. need to do more research :)
