Dear Alexey,

The https://qifi.org site says that everything happens locally in your browser. Of course it is your right to disbelieve them.

The site above also suggests piping the string "WIFI:S:;T:;P:;;" into your favourite QR-code generator, which is IMHO very courteous and responsible of them.
