Double-Dipping Broadband Madness by Hotels
Shel Holtz refers to an evil practice by hotels–double-dipping on the broadband:
Two people check into a hotel room—husband and wife, business colleagues sharing a room, whatever—and each has his or her own laptop. One jacks in, signs up for the $9.95-per-day service, does his work, logs off. Then the second person jacks in and is asked to pay again. Each computer has a different MAC address and the hotel—many of which would charge for each flush of the toilet if they could—takes advantage of that to get double broadband fees for one room.
Are hotels desperately worried that some geeky and his 5 friends are going to organize an all-night hackathon in their suite?
