It is perfectly fine analogy. Most people don't know the implications of using non-secured WIFI. They aren't "yelling anyone to use their data", they (reasonably) think it wouldn't be possible because they don't know about it. Just like you might not know that some crook is stealing your credit card number.

Written by someone who obviously doesn't understand how https works. Your site URL is validated against a server-side certificate. The protocol starts with an exchange of public keys, then uses session keys for the session. This makes a man in the middle attack impossible.

Yeah, who here doesn't understand things. I live in a country that has been serving fake certs and other trickery even when trying to login to fucking Slashdot using HTTPS. If you believe that there is no way around or no tricks to use against users you are being unbelievable naive and/or idiot. Hell, even Slashdot allows this because it has non-https components even if you browse with https.

Go back to your noob-box and get some clue.
