Nice breakdown! This makes me curious of just how many "free" wifi hotspots that allow access to a specific site can be completely bypassed.



Thank you! I suspect the answer is "most", especially if they allow HTTPS in any way. The way to solve this issue is to either whitelist IPs/host the site internally on the local network (e.g. most captive portals).
