Maybe disable automatic joining of random networks? I don't use an iPhone, but I bet it has a setting for that. There's also the security implication of automatically joining unknown networks.
Will that help?
- kalleboo 9y agoThey're not random networks though. Sometimes I do use the station wifi (so it's in my network list), but that's if I'm parked there for 15 minutes waiting for a train and want to stream a YouTube channel or download a podcast. Just not when I'm on the train passing it.
- KGIII 9y agoI think another person mentioned a possible solution in a different thread. Just tell it to not auto-join those specific networks. It's not necessarily ideal, but it should work. I believe they gave you directions on how to do it, in the other thread about the exploits. I'm not really spying, I just happened to just finish reading that thread and noticed the train similarities. That should solve it for you. I'd find that behavior maddening. Fortunately, that's not a likely problem for me.
- kalleboo 9y agoYeah I just saw that comment after I replied here. As you say, not ideal but it should help at least.
- tinus_hn 9y agoYou can turn off auto-join for specific networks.
