Usually connect to Walmart's WiFi but they changed their policy I guess, won't be doing that now...

    That’s generally true in the US as well. That’s why people are so outraged by this.

      Lol, I’m jealous. Pretty much all public WiFi requires login in the UK.

      It was very easy to get free WiFi in the US compared to most EU countries I’ve been in. But here in the EU at least I have cheap data so it’s not all bad.

      This might be anecdotal tbh. I am in the US and I run into captive portals all the freaking time. It’s so annoying.
