@briankrebs A Wi-Fi-backed internet connection is gratis in many hotels simply because a slow internet connection can be paid for with only the tiniest fraction of the businesses profits.

Still, many hotels try their hardest to turn a profit on the internet connection as well.

Your problem seems to be how you're running proprietary software that serves another master and not you and therefore automatically carries out requests to advertising networks.

Also, imagine agreeing to a "terms of service".
