Hasn't this been around for a while? I've had the option on my phone since last year. And while Google isn't exactly trustworthy, it's better than some of the shadier free options out there.
It's fast and it's accessible for non-techy people. Certainly better than using an unsecured network with no protection at all.
What I want to know is are there really people sitting in Starbucks all day with a laptop trying to view your Instagram traffic.
A few uears ago there mighta been of you were popular enough. Nowadays probably not.
