The inevitable future.....

Will that be surfing or non-surfing?

Banned, techies congregate outside to get a fix...

New ordinances banning laptop use within 150 feet of the building entrance...

Villified as causing everything from the Ague to zits, techies huddle in small enclaves in basements and garages...

Full circle.

I’ve noticed this too. You stop in to a coffee shop during the day and you see a few ladies group baby sitting all their kids, and a couple people online that look like they are going to make a day of it. Fun, fun! ;-)

Yeah, this is San Francisco Luddite chic. Certainly, a business can do whatever it wants, and certainly the customers who like playing with the 53 year old coffee machine are welcome to go; but watch for the Internet to become yet another thing that our progessivists want to take away from us.
