When I recently moved, the house was not yet completely finished, and not in a state where we could call our ISP to install broadband (we had to run coaxial inside first). Luckily, my neighbor ran an open wifi hotspot, so we just used that for a few weeks. Sure, it was a spotty connection, but it did let us keep up on email. I'm paying it forward by running an unencrypted 'guest' SSID, isolated (VLAN) from my encrypted SSID. Many consumer-grade wifi routers support this setup, and I can't see any reasonable excuse not to do this as a courtesy to visitors and neighbors.
