In the middle of the Big Woods. Not many houses around except on the main highway. But the few with electricity have Open Networks so their neighbors can share! We don't have cable or phone lines or DSL. Few have dishes. Just Sprint Mifi. It doesn't matter. Even if I can't find any open wifi, maybe I'm too high, it will have a note on it. Take me to Wifi or take me to Starbucks. Then I might know where it is! Unless the Google database doesn't have the MAC address cuz the road is too small and rarely used...
In Orange County, CA maybe 1 in 100 neighbors have open wifi. But in a neighborhood with 1000 houses that is enough. I can store the MAC's along the way. I don't need to find it until the end. Then at least it'll be lower. Hopefully not in the middle of the desert!
