Marsh, the thing is that the ssl module was only introduced in python 2.6. [0] There has been other options for a _long_ time. As an example, (for https traffic) pycurl. So python developers can and do use public wifi without problems. Only the ones who do not read warning messages are at risk. Of course a fair amount of code would have been written before the warnings were added...
