The problem is compounded when using free and public Wi-Fi (called “hotspots”), as they’re considerably less secure than your own private connection. Find out the official name of the legitimate Wi-Fi network from the school itself. Therefore, use free Wi-Fi for things like reading the news, streaming music, or doing research for homework. Even better than joining a seemingly secured Wi-Fi network is to bring your own. •If it’s not set up to do it automatically, download the latest free software updates for your Windows or Mac operating system.
