What is the threat model in which an attacker could MitM your internal network?

* Browsers will display annoying warning symbols whenever you try to access sites via HTTP.
* If you live in a shared living space such as an apartment you probably don't have control over your home network.
* Even if you have control over your network, a single compromised IoT device is enough to sniff your internal network traffic, assuming WPA2. (Probably not super likely tbh.)
