A Day Of Sniffing Out The WiFi
Here's an amusing story about a woman who clearly has plenty of experience using hotspot WiFi describing some trouble she had recently in trying to do some stuff over WiFi. The article neatly demonstrates two very important points. (1) Even if you're quite tech savvy and experienced using WiFi, it doesn't always work well. (2) WiFi really does act as a good promotion for retail locations, as she seemed to buy an awful lot of stuff in between trying to get the WiFi working properly.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
