Perhaps not the best example but one to start joggin' the noggin: it can be a weak point to start an attack your local network, if someone is adjacent (like standing in range of your WiFi). Obviously not a major threat to most people reading, especially since HTTPS became normalised, but a reason to keep security in the discussion for local home networks.
