Study: Wi-Fi Users Are Not Freeloaders

Customers that avail of free WiFi connection in Paris coffee shops do not hog tables, according to a new study by Wi-Fi provider Free-HotSpot. The report indicates that cafes with free WiFi connection have three to five times more customers than their fee-based counterparts and these people use the service for a shorter duration, with an average length of 89 minutes. Most of those users also frequent these restaurants in the afternoon, a usual downtime period. Free-HotSpot Vice President Joe Brunoli believes connection-hogging is more of a problem for paid schemes since people would tend to think that they must get their money’s worth.
