Title: Your Phone Isn't Invisible

Scenario:

At a café, your phone auto-connects to "CoffeeGuest," a network you used months ago. You don't realize it's a new rogue hotspot set up to intercept traffic. Attackers target auto‑join behaviors because they know most people never adjust their Wi‑Fi settings.

Questions:

Does your phone auto‑connect to public Wi‑Fi without asking?

What could someone capture from a device on an untrusted network?

Key Takeaway:

Turn off auto‑join for public networks and stick to cellular or a VPN when handling anything work‑related.
