How often have you gone on social media and seen the status update: "I don't have internet for a week, Gotta go to [insert fast food establishment here] for wifi to check email and stuff."
Not only that, they are inconvenienced, right?
I've seen it.
How quickly we forgot dial up; waiting ages for a connection while sitting entranced by the modem's shrill song.
Back in the 90's things were different.
My school had an Iomega Zip drive. I marveled at the thought of a 100 MB disk, but I'd never fill one up. Such excess!
Maybe I'll think twice next time I find myself trying to connect to a store's wifi. "What? I have to agree to your policy to connect!? Such a bother! Wifi off! 3G on!"
Maybe.
Maybe next time I fill up 5 GB of my SDHC card while testing out my GoPro.
Maybe not.
