It's very easy to use because it's solid state and there are no setups required, other than plugging it in.
On top of that, it's relatively inexpensive, so you can get one for everyone in your family.
Mission Darkness Faraday Bag
A Faraday Bag is a bag that is made with signal blocking material. It's very useful for keeping your laptop private while you're on the move.
Even if your laptop is in sleep mode, it could still be sending and receiving data. A Faraday bag will block those signals.
A great side benefit is that it can also protect your laptop from electromagnetic pulses (EMP). It's not likely that you'll run into this scenario, but it doesn't help to be protected.
Mission Darkness makes some of the best Faraday Bags for laptops or tablets.
