> on FREE wi-Fi

Twice I’ve heard about this... I didn’t pay attention then. But when Rina Jimenez-David wrote an article about it, I tried and yes, it’s true. Sadly.
When you see signs in coffee shops, restaurants or other establishments offering “free Wi-Fi service”, don’t believe them. What the signs really mean is that a customer can avail of Wi-Fi [wireless internet service] but only in exchange for a certain amount of food, beverage or goods, and only for a limited period. None of which, by the way, the signs or the counter people will tell you when you avail of their “free” Wi-Fi. The truth is, to be able to avail this, you need to make at least P200 worth of purchase. A slip of paper then comes along with the username and password. So when you see a “free Wi-Fi” sign again, think twice.
Good thing, my work doesn’t require “take homes”. Once I log out, I’m totally out. I’ll just worry again when our biometric say “Good Morning Al”.

What's an opinionator?
An opinionator is somebody who has power without responsibility, and the ability to spout off on any subject without worrying too much about the consequences of what comes out of the mouth. All you need is an opinion and the opportunity to voice it.
TV is full of professional opinionators. The internet gives the amateur his chance.
