Reminder to never use public Wi-fi without Tor or a trustworthy VPN

@immychan i thought I saw something from a security conscious outlet saying that with the proliferation of https that worry about using public networks may be out dated...

@tigzikk kinda, but the public Wi-fi providers can still see the URLs of the sites you visit as I understand it

@immychan @tigzikk If the site is using HTTPS, the provider can only see what domains (i.e. "mastodon.social) you're resolving.
