There's this infographic on the train. A guy's connecting to the open WiFi network on the train and then logging in to a bank, and apparently another guy sitting nearby with a laptop (and an evil grin) intercepts that password. The infographic goes on to say that you should use a #VPN to protect against that.
Do I want to point out that not only this is bullshit, but for most people a "VPN" actually means installing some spyware?

If you have a @… account that is connected to a payment service (CC, PayPal, bank transfer), you can contact support to cancel and request a refund. #VPN #dontSupportAFascist

If you're using #Windows and a #VPN service in order to get some #privacy, you may probably re-think and switch to a modern #Linux
