I've never used a Wi-Fi connection and am curious as to how one would use the ubiquitously free Wi-Fi access, such as in airports, hotels, university campuses, etc.
In particular, how does one protect one's computer from being hacked/exploited when using such a network?
Simple question. Simple answer?
When I googled the issue, all I found were methods for hacking Wi-Fi passwords. Now, that's very unsettling.
