A Tip for Safely using Open WiFi

 
If you don't use Opera as your default browser, (I currently don't) add it to your arsenal of Layered Protection.
You'll notice that I've changed my settings to have VPN Enabled whenever I launch the browser.
Since Opera now offers VPN for free to everyone, it's great whenever you are using Open WiFi.
If you can afford it, using Avast SecureLine is still your best choice. if you can't, open Opera any time you're using Open WiFi.
