That's a fun one.so... aside from the every 3 months bitching on this list (and some on v6ops maybe) about these sorts of things, what's happening to tell/educate/warn/notice the hotspot-vendors that this sort of practice (along with 'everything is at 1.1.1.1!') is just a bad plan? How can users, even more advanced users, tell a hotspot vendor in a meaningful way that their 'solution' is broken?
Years ago I talked to a startup's funders about the fact that they had made a design decision to build hardcoded unassigned /8s into a captive portal and mobility gateway.
We didn't buy their product, they changed it, company folded. The most meaningful thing one can do is vote with your wallet.
