minus-squarecalcopiritus@lemmy.worldBanned from communitylinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoHTTPS solved much of the security issues of untrusted networks. As long as you’re not doing banking or whatever, you should be fine without a VPN.
minus-squareWIPocket@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoWhy would banking be an issue? I get that its a target, but I really would expect a bank to take care of their TLS.
minus-squareTryptaminev@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoAlso i would expect banks to use some sort of 2FA where you have to manually confirm any transaction on your mobile device, or enter a code generated from there into your computer.

When doing security-sensitive things, it’s better to wait when you’re home on an uncompromised network. But yes, the chances of something happening is very small, even when using an unknown network.
