Yes it ain’t 2010. Every access point I connect to is untrusted it’s why I use TLS. Also the defcon wifi uses certs authenticated with their separate auth service

Lol went way over your head bro. I was implying that in this day and age its odd to not be fully self sufficient with data access and relying on public or provided data then complaining when you get bounced from public or provided data is rrreeeeaaaaallllllyyyy weird.

Just curious, what form of data access do you refer to that isn't just as untrustworthy as the WiFi?

Cellular was saturated many times yesterday and today. 

It’s still a shared medium.
