Two things the video misses:

1. Trying out a bunch of standard passwords before getting bored and moving on.

2. That asshole at every airport pulling the “Free Wi-Fi” ad-hoc network scam. You’ll get online, but they’ll swipe your passwords. Sort of like a pimp not making you pay, but filming and selling a video of it without you knowing.

By the way, am I the only one that thinks free Wi-Fi looks kinda like Juliette Lewis? Who woulda thunk it.
