I would call that a half-truth. When I was a kid (in the early 2000's) it was exceptionally easy to crack public wifi networks. A lot of that had to do with misconfiguration and every company scrambling to create public wifi APs. It makes sense that these memories and experiences live on and have become slogans of companies vying for privacy.
