From the "How can visitors connect?" page:

> Visitors who are XFINITY Internet subscribers can simply select the XFINITY WiFi network “xfinitywifi” on their device and open a Web browser to get started. They will be able to sign in with their XFINITY email or username and password.

So now anyone can create a hotspot named "xfinitywifi" and phish for passwords from folks who doesn't look for an https connection. I hope Comcast does some good training beyond "connect and enter your password."
