public wifi
Café internet access
Public wifi is wireless internet access available in shared spaces—cafes, airports, hotels, libraries.
Unlike private networks, public wifi typically requires no password or uses a shared one, making it convenient but less secure.
Security advice routinely warns against accessing sensitive accounts on public wifi: I never check my bank balance on public wifi.
