Well your post seems to be at odds with sibling comments. What is your source of information?
HN advice: when you feel you are right and every one else is wrong, please please quote a source.
Well I definitively saw unnatural HTML content overlays in the browser, and the only explanation I can think of is that the wifi hotspot MITM-injected javascript either in .html or .js files as they were downloaded to insert these overlays. Would love to see this proved wrong though :)
Yes it does, I've used it and it 100% does.
