A closer look
Free airport Wi-Fi feels like a lifesaver when you’re stuck between flights. But here’s the sting: every network you connect to could be more than just a helpful gateway—it could be an eavesdropper. Hackers sometimes set up fake hotspots with names like 'Free Airport Wi-Fi,' capturing everything you browse or type. Passwords, emails, travel plans—suddenly you’re handing them out for free. The antidote? A few travel hacks: use secure VPNs, rely on your phone’s hotspot, and avoid logging into sensitive accounts. You don’t have to fear the convenience—just wear digital seatbelts when you surf the skies.
