Yesterday I went to Home Depot for an in-store pick up. I took out my phone and noticed the Wi-Fi symbol. I checked the Wi-Fi setting and it's connected to Guest-Passpoint (see screenshot), I pressed the (i) and forget network as well as disabled auto-join. Went home and did some web searching.

securew2: What is Passpoint?
I have 'Ask to Join Networks: Notify' and 'Auto-Join Hotspot: Ask to Join" selected under the Wi-Fi settings. There was no notification or being asked at all.
After reading the article on SecureW2, the auto-join might be triggered by the previous network profile/certificate I installed for eduroam (a Wi-Fi roaming service in many Universities). However there's no way to check which certificate I installed on the iPhone. On macOS, I can at least look at KeyChain Access. Since the cell network was not weak at all inside Home Depot, it jumped to the Wi-Fi network in the background (with the help from T-Mobile) was unexpected. Anyone had similar experience?
