is there any internet cafe that allows you to reach the open web without asking you for identification first?
- prawn 13y agoNever found one that does ask for ID. Is that your point?
- rodolphoarruda 13y agoHere where I live the wide majority of cafes (and other hotspots) rely internet access service to telcos which require you to fill in a form on their website identifying yourself before you hit the web. That's why I asked. Nice to know you can browse around anonymously in Starbucks though.
- prawn 13y agoAll those I've seen (mostly abroad where I've used wireless in restaurants, airports, etc) allow you to use fake details. I've never registered with true information to use public wireless.
- rodolphoarruda 13y agoThat is really great for you. Here there is not such thing. Go anywhere with public wireless, a hotspot or whatever, connect to their network and try to browse around. Bing, "please choose one of our plans: per hour, day, week or month". Type in your credit card number and you are "free" to go. Of course, you can try a stolen ID and/or credit card combination, but then you are at your own risk.
