Any device that connects to my wireless network is not able to do anything until I go into an app on my phone and manually move it to an account that will give it access. Fortunately, there are no other open networks within range.

You should still put a password on your Wi-Fi network to encrypt your traffic.

WPA3 allows for non-password protected but still having encryption:

Is this actually widely implemented in WiFi clients and APs? I have never seen the "Enhanced open" indication in Android.

Yeah, that’s not going to stop network sniffing unless your network is protected.
