Yes, the laptop _does_ have a security problem if it is plugged into an unknown
network, e.g. in an Internet Cafe or a hotel lobby. The evil gateway can be
used to support a man-in-the-middle attack, for example. Even if it is just
snooping around looking at which other hosts the laptop user tries to reach,
this is information I do not want anybody else to see.
