Lol. Brookfield Place wifi had an OPT IN for their wifi to receive marketing.

If you unclicked it, the 'connect to wifi' button greyed out and a notification appears saying that Opt In is required for wifi.

Put their own email in there, ceo@that-dumb-company.com
Hmm, probably beats my default: abuse@$COMPANY.com
Type the email address of somebody you dislike
Yep this. They never make you verify your email address on a captive portals. (Since you can’t check your email without an internet connection in the first place).
Then you could put in anything that looks like a valid email rather than the email of someone you dislike.
yomomma@example.com works for me, most of the time. Some of the places that like to spam their users no matter what filter example.com out.
There's always a@a.com
My go-to is always their domain, if it works.
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I DID mwahahaha
