Yes we do still have libraries, and all the advice about security is well taken Using an internet cafe is fortunately for us in the UK only a short term solution while our personal computer is sorted It is a cheap way of letting people know your internet is down. I wouldn't consider sending remittance, doing online banking, or filling in my tax return using a public computer. I don't even use my maximum allowance of over 300 hours / year, but I'm thankful the facility is still available when my own internet is down. It could be good exercise walking to the internet cafe.
