I don't understand one point. Bakeries and petty shops are not the places where people sit or spend more than a few minutes. Even if you were to,you are busy grabbing a coffee or a cigarette. Even though the number of people is very high, I dont see myself going to a petty shop ,buying a token and using the internet.Would love to know your counter.

The website says the token is valid for 24 hours, if the user is going to have 2-3 coffee/cigarette a day he doesn't have to get a token every time. Also If this token is valid across all the Bakeries and petty shops then the user can go to any shop for a chai and use the internet. Soon people might give you a token as change ;-)
