[OPSEC/Computer] Home or Public Wifi more secure for DNM purchasing through Tails?

I've read arguments for both using home/private wifi and public (say, coffee shop) wifi for shopping DNMs. Which is more secure, or a safer bet? Does it really matter if you are running Tails and the rest of your OPSEC is squared away? Thanks, appreciate any thoughts.

You need to make sure your machine anonymizes your machine's MAC address so as to not be profiled each time you connect to a public WiFi network. A random MAC address each time = higher chance of freedom versus some wanker who just signs on blindly each time. Think about it, coffee shops and shopping malls are analyzing that data to better target advertisements to shoppers.

Stay wise, ex.

with security cameras, intercepting proxies, MAC capture you can often be less anonymous (and definitely less secure) using public WiFi than just sticking with your home connection

as a buyer, it isn't in your OPSEC profile to need to cutout your real IP - Tor + Tor Browser + PGP + burner online wallet to cutout inbound bitcoins is completely fine
