As spotted in Parque Lincoln in the Polanco neighborhood of Mexico City:

This sign translates as "Miguel Hidalgo (the district where Polanco is located) offers you free internet here." We've totally got our priorities straight, people.
This is part of DF’s new marketing campaign:
Mexico City:
We can’t promise you potable, running water, but we can promise that you’ll be able to download a video of a hot chick drinking a glass of water online.”
