And if I ever ran into one of those I'd be complaining loud and long and
challenging their claims to providing "free WiFi." My laptops still get
their email via POP3 and send it through SMTP, and blocking those ports
would prevent me from using their so-called free WiFi. I'd bet that
anybody who needed to use a VPN to get work done while on the road would
soon learn not to use that chain at any time.
