為了省錢,有些人甘于做一個(gè)“蹭客”:蹭飯、蹭車,甚至蹭網(wǎng)。相對(duì)于蹭飯和蹭車,蹭網(wǎng)要隱秘得多,所以蹭網(wǎng)一族也大有人在,這種走到哪蹭到哪的蹭網(wǎng)族也被稱為internet hobo(網(wǎng)絡(luò)游民)。
Internet hobo refers to someone who is using their neighbor's/hotel across the road's wi-fi internet.
“網(wǎng)絡(luò)游民”指那些用鄰居或馬路對(duì)面飯店的無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)上網(wǎng)的人。
Example:
My friend just bought a new high power wi-fi card so he can connect to the neighbors wi-fi and is now an offical internet hobo.
我朋友剛買了一個(gè)新的高功率無線上網(wǎng)卡,為的是可以連接上鄰居的無線網(wǎng)絡(luò),現(xiàn)在他也是個(gè)不折不扣的“網(wǎng)絡(luò)游民”了。
