So this image was taken.
The girls were sitting outside of Taco Bell to connect to the Taco Bell wifi so they could do their homework. They don't have wifi at home and their mom is a seasonal fruit picker who sells flowers on the side, so they don't have a lot of money.
And COVID isn't helping.
Should we as a nation do something for these girls? Get them wifi at the very least?
It's not like they aren't trying.

A Go Fund Me account was created that netted a pretty penny. The local Republicas were heard to scream bloody murder. go figure.
Who is going to be providing this "free" wifi? Even with a booster, wifi still has a limited range and bandwidth.
The Columbus City School District took responsibility for ensuring its students had access to remote learning including providing 15,000 chrome books and partnered with a nonprofit to provide hotspot devices and internet access.

considering that there is a pandemic going on and we are requiring virtual classes, yes, we should have free wifi.

I'm a little confused about what you are saying here. Are you saying those things should be restricted on public wifi systems (which many do, others simply don't know how to set such restrictions) or all wifi including from private routers?Public wifi is not an issue, the internet in recent years is a necessity, However were it me I would make wifi very limited ie bandwidth restrictions, and block video games and porn from the public wifi. Even though internet is a necessity playing wow or looking up porn is not.
In the past libraries handled internet, but internet needs even for neccessities have long moved past what public libraries can handle.

Who pays for it?
Does money grow on trees?
High speed internet is a necessity in today's society, just like electricity is. I don't think the government needs to provide it free for everyone, but providing assistance for those living in poverty makes sense, and the government does the same thing with electric bills for some people. Those sorts of programs should be expanded during times when internet access is an increased necessity like now.
What the government absolutely needs to be doing is investing in infrastructure to make sure everyone has access to high speed internet. There are still millions of people in the US that don't even have the option to get high speed internet at their homes. My grandparents live 25 miles from Columbus, OH and don't have high speed internet to their house.
These guys think money grows on trees

I'm wondering more on whether he wants to limit private wifi use on these things, but thinks maybe there is a difference for overall usage if they wire in to do those things in a private setting.Either way, people will just learn to use a VPN
Technically, public wifi is not really so much wide range as that there are consistent points of broadcasts for it, enough to cover most distances. That being said, the band that reaches furthest without needing more broadcast points (APs) is 2.4GHz, which is slower and older, which means some devices cannot operate on it and it is more prone to interference.we already pay for it through schools. They aren't in classrooms and btw, WIFI can cover large ranges. It is quite interesting that there is public wifi in a variety of places in third world countries but we cannot manage to have it?
