Hi,
Now that ATT changed their data plans from unlimited to 200MB or 2GB I’m planning to start using HOTSPOTS and any free Wi-Fi connections since I’m getting the 200MB data plan, and even if based on ATT’s history I have never exceed the 200MB in the past 6 months, I’m afraid that with a faster phone I will be using more data than normal so, I will have to start using public Wi-Fi services and I’m a little concern about security issues, since I have never used any public network before.
1- What is the risk I would be taking if I connect to public networks?
2- Can they steal my contacts information?
3- What can I do to prevent any security issues?
Thanks
