English term or phrase: draining my data
What would you be willing to exchange and/or do to secure a free Wi-Fi connection with a strong signal when travelling, on holiday or at a concert or stadium event?

I would be willing to exchange and/or do for free Wi-Fi…
Share access to my personal emails
Allow access to my contact list
Allow access to a photo of myself
Share my personal details (e.g., name, address, date of birth)
Introduce myself to a complete stranger
Leave my travel group to stay somewhere by myself
(...)

In these situations, what do you consider the most important reason for having access to a strong, public Wi-Fi connection?

So I can avoid ** draining my data **
So I can post to a social sharing website such as Instagram, Facebook or Snapchat
So I can use Maps, Google Maps or another GPS app to get around
So I can keep my child/children preoccupied
So I can keep tabs on my financial information or bank account balance
