I suppose it should be pretty easily verifiable. Just set up a new SSID without protection and see what connects.

Might as well try it with my own TV. IIRC I never accepted any TOS either.

Yes but not in a way she would think another person may view it, most likely. Obviously IANAL but surely intent matters here?

If people actively realised someone can read all their chats, I’m sure these services would be far less popular.

And here’s the autism slop because I can’t think of the proper term for “actively realising” and do not have the energy to make it readable anymore:
What I mean is, I’m sure plenty of people know in the back of their mind that their data is not protected there, but it’s not the first, or second, or probably even tenth thing they think about when starting a chat.

Unfortunately Futo is doing some pretty shady stuff not in favour of the open-source community:

tldr mostly from memory:

They made it seem like they were big donors or have a grant program to some open-source projects. This was not true, in some cases they were talking about a one time 1000 euro donation iirc. And the projects that supposedly received these grants knew nothing of them.

They are also quite happy to give far-right fascists a platform, saying they are “not a political organisation”.

There are a few popular options, but i haven tried them personally yet:

• Orange pi
• Banana pi
• Odroid (coworker is a big fan of these)
• Rock64 (i think this ones very old)
