Burger King is a major American fast food chain with franchises across the globe and in many exo-Earth locations.

When you spend most of your time operating outside an office, you find yourself eating a lot of junk food. Aside from being a common hangout for everyone from angsty teenagers to soccer moms to plainclothes police, it is a good place to do very low-budget hacking operations; they provide free Internet access, and while it's never a wise idea to transmit your own secure information through such a platform, if you don't care who else gets the information you're after, there are worse ways to get the job done. Do take note that some would-be hackers have been caught by ordering food on credit cards at locations where they've been working, or simply by being such frequent customers that staff recognize them and may repeat this information if asked properly.

While most corporations don't care what Burger King is or what it does, many office drones stop by to pick up a quick sack of burgers for the office lunch or sit to have some unhealthy but quick food with their families. It tends to be no more than a blip on the corporate radar.

Burger King sells fast food, pure and simple. Most of their offerings are not 'healthy' and status-conscious individuals will generally avoid the place, but if you're poor and hungry, you often end up in places like Burger King.
