Don’t offer WiFi at all. That’ll weed out all those low class freeloaders that can’t afford an unlimited plan. Razz They’d only spend 35¢ on a cup of straight black, or purchase a single donut hole anyway.

There’s free donuts in an old flour bag out back by the dumpster.

You can argue all day about the economics of whether in today’s social media driven society if this is smart business. Who cares though? Will this DD really go out of business because of this? Doubtful. Plus, the owner was 100% in the right. You may not like it but who the fuck says you have to post a sign stating the obvious? WiFi for customers only, and oh yeah don’t piss on the floor either.

Buy something or leave. Simple.
You are right that one should not have to post a sign stating something that is obvious, but in today's society what is obvious to most is not so to some, and it costs very little to post a sign.

People don't read signs. They can't even listen when you speak to them. Nobody has time to pay attention.

Nobody wants to hear or read anything that conflicts with what they want. Post a sign that says, “Get your free <whatever> here.” and all of a sudden everyone can read.
