Betreff: [DNG] allegedly open wifi
I've started to see a few public wifi sites that actually don't require
you to log in with a browser. They let you enter a password as a part
of the normal, official protocol for talking to the access point.

The rest are a problem with the increasing paranoia of browsers against
sites usurping a connection, which is of course what the rest do.

I've noticed that, as long as I'm using devuan on my laptop, I can open
the NetSurf browser and it will let my connection get usurped so I can
enter the password and connect.

But on my android talet I'm stuck. Firefox and Chrome are both too
paranoid ...

Does anyone have any ideas how to get around this stupid protocol
violation by mnearly all the public wifi sites in the world?
