No more so than when using public places for general internet use, where caution is always advisable. I rarely work in these places anyway - the nearest it comes to it is maybe sending off finished translations or picking up emails when my home internet is down.

I only work from home, as others have said. I need peace and quiet and my reference books. But what security issues would be raised if you worked from a coffee shop? Would you be afraid that someone is reading the text over your shoulder?

well, if you work on confidential documents that would be an issue too, but I mostly meant security issues related to your internet connection.

I voted 'Other' because yes, I have thought about it, but no, I'm not worried. I'm confident that the necessary measures are in place.

Security issues? Well nobody would understand the stuff I translate anyway because of it's technical nature.
And, work in libraries? I'd be thrown out because of the expletives that I let out occasionally But I've heard that demure librarians like blokes who talk dirty ....
Answered "I don't work in public places"
well, the expletives might get me in trouble too - good point, actually
