This tech existed 30 years ago, just wasn't packaged up for easy deployment.
As late as 2012 you could MITM people in your network, even without being the person managing the router. ARP poisoning and mitmproxy or just some intelligent reverse proxy, you could pick up the cookies, URLs, and POST data for all the requests in the network.
