That’s it! I’ve had enough!
I’m snakemothering sick of these snakemothering wifi spots with their snakemothering URL redirection!
Every time I’m on a new hotel internet access point, they throw new tech glitches into the mix. The one that I particularly love is when they do a URL redirect / rewrite to any request. So, when the connection drops out (they all are flaky as hell in Melbourne) my iTunes podcast downloads replace all the URLs with the login page. So, long story short, I lose all the URLs of all my podcasts, to be replaced by “auth13.wifi.org/login”. I don’t know who to be more p*ssed at, Apple or the wifi guys… either way, I have to reload all my podcasts for the 5th time… auuuugh…
