Don’t EVER use any public wifi without a proper VPN. As soon as you connect, launch the VPN. Hotels, museums, conferences, coffeshop, busses and trains, and library wifis are the worst. Even homes of friends.
I’ve seen wireshark traffic that would make your blood curl.
30 daysOn my last vacation, I was in a hotel you could control the chromecast sessions of other guests.
Did a bit of testing (maybe also a bit of trolling) to verify the control.
But considering that…That’s a yikes.I’m going to use the public wifi at defcon with no VPN, wish me luck!

That’s why I’ve been arguing for a long time that using VPN for everything by default is just basic security.

The only reason I don’t currently is that my phone’s VPN connection doesn’t handle network switching gracefully. Otherwise I try and tunnel all my traffic through my home network.
As a useful side effect, I need to expose far less of my IoT devices .

Last company I work for replace MS with Google, oh it was a shit show… Had to be on chrome, but chrome doesn’t work with most of our M&C gear so we needed FF. IT pushes back that you have to use chrome. We push back it will cost millions to retool\reprogram the M&C to use chrome and their department can pay for it.
You can guess we got FF installed after that VP to VP conversation.
They are still butt hurt over that when I moved on. IT forgets they have a paycheck because of operation and production…
