Secure WIFI

[mdssac]

Do you who know more about this think it's worth it?

It's a VPN service, which is what's usually used to secure yourself when using open WiFi. I use a VPN pretty much all the time, but that's really because I'm in China, but also keeps me secure on open WiFi as well. For me having a VPN is definitely worth it.

Whenever you are letting your phone to connect to ANY public WiFi network, you should just automatically consider it's not secure.

Do you spend a lot of time on public wifi ?
Are you sending NSA style files and such?

Do you have a couple dollars to burn?

Ask yourself this: have you ever connected to unsecure networks before? ;-)

For me its not worth the cost and reduced bandwidth/speed for my needs.

So should I buy this monthly service? I do use wifi at other venues like schools sporting events, Vegas hotels bla bla bla.

Have you used open wifi before and have accessed your websites in that way? Have any issues? Then no, i think this is not worth the money.

Of course Its your money and your comfort level.

this is my own opinion and as always, YMMV.

I wouldn't... Check out Adguard pro from the play store, it works with any browser as a VPN connection

Thank you. Never had any issues at all. Well, that I know of. Sounds like most of you DON'T use a secure wifi app. I won't either. Ty
