Description
· A third of the British public (34%) would assume that they are connected to the correct WiFi if they can access the internet. However, two fifths (39%) of British adults do not know whether the WiFi in a public location is safe to use.
· Few than half of British adults (43%) say that they would look for a sign that indicates ‘WiFi is available’ whilst out on the high street and in need of public WiFi.
· Over three quarters of the British public (77%) rank a ‘Friendly WiFi’ logo clearly displayed as one of their top three choices regarding things that would make public WiFi more helpful.
