Travel and public Wi-Fi
What happens to your connection on networks you do not control, and what to do about it.
Public Wi-Fi
Public Wi-Fi safety, explained by what actually goes wrong
Captive portals, DNS and TLS SNI leaks, evil-twin hotspots and shared Wi-Fi passwords, explained plainly, with an honest account of what a VPN fixes.
Airports
Airport Wi-Fi: timers, sign-in portals and the walk to the gate
Airport Wi-Fi fails in its own ways: timed free sessions, sign-in portals, look-alike network names and access points that change as you walk to the gate.
Dubai
Using a VPN on your trip to Dubai
Dubai hands you free Wi-Fi almost everywhere: malls, the metro, hotel lobbies, the beach. How to keep a few days of shared-network traffic encrypted.
Travel
A VPN for travel: what changes when you leave your own network
Planning a trip: why you stop being the administrator at the departure gate, what to set up before you fly, and why a trip is bought in days rather than years.
Hotels
VPN for hotel Wi-Fi: a network you live on for days
Hotel Wi-Fi is a network you stay on for days: a room-number portal that expires mid-stay, a device cap, a flat guest segment, and a TV someone else signed into.
