    I get what you are saying, but in the case of the internet, you need an IP address to connect rather than simply exist with a computer. Someone needs to know where to send the data.

    There are however free connections: unsecured neighbors wifi, city wifi, hotels, and even busses/trams. Lots have limitations to hogging bandwidth though.

      I guess you could go full mr robot and install a rpi in the wall where there is free wifi and hope maintenance never finds it. But that would be super illegal.
