Description
Beware of Free Wi-Fi Connectivity is a simple, practical, and awareness-driven handbook written for everyday internet users. In a world where free Wi-Fi is available everywhere — airports, hotels, cafés, campuses, conferences, and public spaces — most people connect without thinking about the hidden risks. This book helps readers pause, reflect, and use public Wi-Fi more consciously.
Written in simple English and paragraph style, the book avoids technical jargon and fear-based messaging. It focuses on real-life situations, common habits, and small daily decisions that often lead to cyber exposure. The goal is not to turn readers into cyber experts, but to help non-technical users understand how risk enters ordinary digital life and how simple awareness can significantly reduce it.
The book covers topics such as:
-
Why free Wi-Fi feels safe but often is not
