Hopefully when you access your bank you are doing it via secured encrypted pages. Its all well to be encrypted during the wireless portion of your data's journey, but that is only a small portion of where exposure is at.LCplMustafa wrote:not to scare anyone into wearing a tinfoil hat or anything, but anytime you use anything wireless, you're putting out signals that anyone can receive. If you are going to use wireless, make sure you use WPA or WEP encryption. Even with encryption, I still go plug in if I'm going to access banking website or purchase anything.
