this is the most confusing use case to me

did you know all your traffic is encrypted by default? (that's what https is for)

good question. i don't know the answer off the top of my head but i assume that you would be able to tell if an SSL handshake is compromised by verifying the signature chain using the certificate authorities installed on your machine?

can you get MITMd by an attacker who controls the LAN?

Should have added a * hehe

At the end of the day it’s just a question of who you want to disclose this info to

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness;

Valid argument. specific to crypto people though

you're still giving them the host you want to connect to right? It's just that the contents of your connection are encrypted. What if you were a less than savory person that owned an Airbnb seeing someone connecting to ledger live, aave, uniswap etc.

Ok especially when traveling and staying at airbnbs I might or might not torrent and stream 🏴‍☠️ stuff that might not be ideal for the hosts. So that's what probably started my usage long ago
