Just note, your phone will present that 'hidden' SSID to every hidden network it comes across, adding an extra method of tracking.

    Yep, not advertising is not the same as actually hiding the network. I can't remember how but you can add something to the start or end of the SSID to prevent it being scanned by google etc, but I dont know how well that actually works.
