it just struck me, is there a list somewhere somebody maintains of "free" airport wifi networks that just plain don't work, block ssh out, appear to be blocked by the outside world in general? (one or more of, other criteria fine too)

Not asking for a friend (yes, using my phone as hotspot in TPE at the moment), and I have encountered a few more that should be added to such a list.

Please boost for reach.

@pitrh Spoofing free WiFi SSIDs is a common attack vector at airports, so be careful with those.

@alda yes, but they would need to provide some semblance of working access to somewhere, wouldn't they?

These clowns, for whatever reason provided only radio signal, name resolution but not actual reachability anywhere I tried.
