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.

On 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.
