While security is necessary for protecting data, it’s not sufficient for addressing privacy. more...

Cellular Data vs Wifi
What is Cellular data and How Do I Manage It?
Your smartphone has two ways of accessing the Internet, either by using a WiFi network or by using the cellular data network offered by your carrier. WiFi uses radio frequencies to wirelessly transmit the Internet to your devices. Cellular data uses the same network provided by the cell towers that allow you to make phone calls. WiFi has a limited range, whereas cellular data is available as long as you are within your carrier’s coverage. more...
About Cellular data settings and usage on your iPhone and iPad
Cellular data on your iPhone and iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular model) is used for data communication in cellular networks. It doesn't affect your ability to make or receive phone calls or use Wi-Fi to connect to the Internet. more...
What is Wi-Fi and How Does It Work?
Differences between Cellular data and Wi-Fi:
Wi-Fi connects to a router. Cellular data doesn’t.
Wi-Fi is basically just another frequency of radio we can use to wirelessly connect devices to each other. To use it for Internet access, your tablet or smartphone connects (over Wi-Fi) to a wireless router—like the one you have installed at home or the one at your favorite coffee shop that allows customers free Internet access.
Wi-Fi has a limited range. Cellular data doesn’t.
Wi-Fi only works within the range of the router. With Cellular data plan, you can access the Internet on your phone or tablet even when you’re out of Wi-Fi range. And those fast 4G LTE data speeds now cover more than 95 percent of the US population. So, when you’re on the road, in a Wi-Fi–challenged hotel room or waiting for the train, your data plan allows you to access the map app on your smartphone.

What is Wi-Fi and How Does It Work?
WiFi is a technology that uses radio waves to provide network connectivity. A WiFi connection is established using a wireless adapter to create hotspots - areas in the vicinity of a wireless router that are connected to the network and allow users to access internet services. Once configured, WiFi provides wireless connectivity to your devices by emitting frequencies between 2.4GHz - 5GHz, based on the amount of data on the network. more...
