Your airport wifi doesn't ask for your email, phone number, bank number of your life savings, etc?

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago

Usually it asks for an email, but you can just input a fake one.

for a lot of captive portals I type random crap like [email protected] or [email protected]

No. Where are you that it asks you for info?

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago

The bank number for life savings was a joke but for some reason they wanted me to verify (I didn't btw)

Oh I know that. Common verification joke people use.
I've never been asked for any information to use airport wifi, that's why I was wondering where they do ask.

Istanbul requires a Turkish phone number or for you to scan your passport at a console.

Places where the airport wifi is actually an evil twin.

As someone who travels for work, it seems like most places ask.
