There is some difference in included data packages between home and EU-roaming, but, yeah, it feels like it's about 10 years late. FWIF, 10 years ago I saw much more of free public WiFi. One part why it changed surely is security reasons, the other is just that people don't really need it that much, I think. I definitely don't rely on it that much (I do sometimes, because far cellular networks are not always available).

IDK, maybe I would feel different if I used laptop on the go more, but I doubt it. Having a mobile phone seems to cover it now.
