Probably not for you (assuming your reading HN means that your work mainly involves code access and key metrics, plus your expressed doubt). To some people, it can be enough: - reading the news on a website who might not have a printed magazine but whose URL you can remember; - personal social media account without sensitive information; chat applications; - I would not recommend email, but I’m assuming that will be a large share of the use. Interestingly, WhatsApp has a decent security and usability case for such a situation: your phone is secure and you use that to authenticate temporarily; the full keyboard is more convenient for communications. But guaranteeing that someone whose name is on the flight manifest will have the need to, and only access to a pool of a handful of laptops means that targetted attack could become so much easier.
