Nowadays the internet became a very important thing for us because our connection with internet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet increases day by day. We all are connected to social media sites, and we want to online all the day, in this way we are attached to these sites and from these sites we share and receive thousands of news and information. That’s why we don’t want to offline from these sites. That’s why people prefer wifi hotspot over cellular data because it has many advantages over mobile data. We got many advantages when we use public wifi, such as

  1. It is fully free
  2. It provides you very fast speed of internet
  3. You don’t face data problems such as you can download any file having low or high memory.
    These are some advantages of public wifi, but there are also many disadvantages such as security problems. When you are using public wifi, then you don’t know in the back end what is actually going on? When you use public wifi hotspot, then your personal information may be stolen by any person, and that person may create dangers for you such as he can use your personal information in any bad activity. There is also another big danger for you that is, when you deals with your bank accounts online using public wifi hotspot https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.seer.wifihotspot then your accounts details such as account number and password etc can be stolen. In this way, your bank accounts may be hacked by hackers, and that is really not good for you.hsckers.jpg
    So I want to say that public wifi’s are not secure for you. When you use public wifi hotspot then that wifi may be created by any hacker then he can see all your activities and movements over the internet. I’ll prefer you that you should first use your cellular network.
