I’d probably go either to Lowes or Walmart.
Walmart requires an email now, but I set up an anonymous email just for that.
Email: irrelevant@dispostable.com Password: Walmart1
It’s registered in their system to the name Anonymous Human. Feel free to use that to access Walmart WiFi anonymously. 👍
Add it to the database!
Not knowing the exact URL for their web portal (which I’m pretty sure isn’t public but only a stopgap within their own WiFi network), I checked bugmenot for walmart.com.
I got this error…
walmart.com logins
This site has been barred from the bugmenot system.
Sites should only appear blocked here if they match one or more of the following criteria:
Pay-per-view: users pay money to access the site
Community: users register only to add/change content (but not to view)
Fraud risk: user accounts contain sensitive details e.g. banks, online stores, etc
I’m not sure what their web portal page URL was or I’d check and add it. Either way, anyone can pull the same trick themselves using any random username@dispostable.com
I’m not at Walmart right now to check their web portal page, and my current internet connection is apparently being slow as molasses, but I’m saving your comment to check later…
Grew up in a home without an internet connection. A friend helped me crack our neighbour’s WiFi password, at the time it was surprisingly easy if you had a copy of Kali Linux.
Edit: This post got me wondering how I could open up a free WiFi network without being liable for any potential illegal activity someone may do? I got a fairly good access point and the bandwidth to spare, but I am afraid to share it in case the police comes knocking on my door…
If you don’t have mobile coverage, the local library or community centre. MacDonalds is also a popular option.
McDonald’s is a no-go in my area, they locked out access to any other site except mcdonalds.com ☹️
Bar down the street has free WiFi and food. So probably there. The library is all the way across town, so not a great option for me.
Or there’s another bar close enough to my house that I could probably make an antenna and leech off that. I did that with on base housing back in the day cuz I didn’t want to pay for internet.
