You mean like this pic?



I remember a story from Alfred Nizzardini, one of his jobs was a remote 

contractor.  He parked at a McDonald's late night after closing.  He had 

his laptop open in the passenger seat.  Sometime later a cop taps on his 

window and asks:  "What are you doing here?"



"Free Wifi." was his answer.



The cop left him alone.  Only Alfred could do that.
