What are the benefits of public WiFi access on our society?
1. It saves time and energy
2. It improves the quality of life
3. It provides a free, safe and reliable network for every citizen on the planet
4. It provides a secure network to protect against cyber attacks
5. It provides a platform for collaboration and information exchange among citizens
What is public WiFi?
In an increasingly connected world, more people are going to live in cities and build their lives around the Internet and mobile devices. In the past, most of these people have access to public WiFi. Some of them have access to WiFi in home networks, but when they travel or are otherwise away from home, they need a secure and private way to connect with other people who live nearby.
As a result, we’ve seen an explosion in the number of public hotspots that allow you to use free WiFi at coffee shops, libraries, restaurants and other public venues.
So why should you care? First and foremost, this is good for your health. Overuse of smartphones increases your chances of developing phone addiction (and many other health risks) because you don’t feel like you are getting enough sleep or exercise — two things that often go hand-in-hand with unhealthy phone habits. Also, this makes you less likely to engage in risky behaviours like driving recklessly or having unprotected sex — behaviours which can be associated with an increased risk of accidents and even death.
Second, there is an obvious business case here: some industries need access to free WiFi so that employees can work from home (like IT departments), others need free WiFi so customers can browse during their lunch breaks (like retailers). Public hotspots are one solution for both problems: They let companies keep customers happy when they’re on the move while also letting employees work from home when on vacation.
Benefits of public WiFi
We are often asked questions like “Why is public WiFi free?” and “Why should people pay to use public WiFi?”.
The fact is that the benefits of public WiFi access go far beyond convenience. In many cases, public WiFi access has a positive effect on citizens’ quality of life. In many cases, it improves the lifestyle of citizens. The benefits are so great that it is impossible to not charge for them. But before we get into why, let’s talk about what exactly is a good network and how it differs from a bad one.
A good network has good connectivity, strong redundancy (the ability to survive multiple failures), reliable endpoints, and a high degree of redundancy within its nodes (i.e. its members). A bad network does not have any of these properties. A bad network can have high failure rates; in particular, if there are multiple failures within its member nodes (i.e., if there are multiple faults in its system), then network connectivity will degrade significantly over time as a result. When this happens, users might notice that their search results aren’t as useful as they normally would be (because when searching for something in Google or Facebook, the connection between two nodes pretty much decides which node gets your search results).
A bad network can be made worse if some members become corrupt or if they stop working altogether (i.e., they break down). When these problems occur, users might no longer be able to connect to their internet service provider’s servers at all — this generally means that users cannot use their internet services anymore at all! While this problem may seem trivial today (especially when you consider that most internet connections have almost always been wireless), keep in mind that it happened years ago with traditional telephone networks and was devastating for millions of people all around the world.

The benefits of public WiFi access on our society
WiFi is a technology that has been around for quite a while now. It started off as a technical solution for the problem of the lack of internet access in homes and offices. The technology was developed because it allowed users to have internet access wherever they go, be it at home or at work, on any device. The only requirement was that its owner could use it free of charge (which meant that someone had to pay for the access).
In other words: WiFi is basically just an extension of your home network in relation to your phone.
And yet, people still don’t seem to know much about WiFi. Very few people even realize that they actually use WiFi when they are out and about, whether to surf the web or check their emails, listen to music or watch TV, etc. And this ignorance stems from the fact that most people don’t really associate WiFi with “the internet” (what we refer to as “the internet” today).
But when you look at how WiFi can affect our lives, you notice many positive aspects of this technology:
• It makes our lives more convenient (at least from an intuitiveness perspective) – we can simply connect to whatever device we want without having to think about what kind of connection it will require and how long it will take us
• This means that some sites can have free content – TV shows and movies are devoid of DRM restrictions which make them easily accessible on any device with a normal browser
• It reduces costs – all companies go through huge costs in order to provide their products via CDN (Content Delivery Network), which is why sites with free content usage have become so popular over time
(It’s worth stating here that companies like Google and Facebook use CDN more than anyone else and so do other big players in the market such as Apple & Amazon)
Conclusion
WiFi is a technology that has been around for about a decade and is still very new in the world of computing. But it has started to become more important and ubiquitous with the introduction of mobile devices and smartphones.
This post will focus on two use cases: public WiFi access and the Internet of things (IoT). These use cases are not really my personal favourites, but they are very common, so I think they are worth mentioning even though they fit very well into this category.
The benefits of public WiFi access go beyond the fact that it is free, quick, easy and allows access to high-speed Internet. It also allows you to connect stuff to your Internet as well as serve files on it. The way you can make your life easier is by bringing an extra device into your home or workplace that can do all these things for you:
• A refrigerator with a built-in fridge freezer
• A garden hose with an extension cord attached
• A kitchen table with a computer monitor attached
Here are some similar examples from the real world:
1) You have a baby who needs frequent diaper changes or a teenager who needs to study at night but needs time for napping. With a smartphone app installed on your phone, you can use it as a babysitter or study companion. If you have an unsecured WiFi network available at home or workplace that has strong connection speeds and decent coverage in your area, this could be just what you need. It’s also cheaper than hiring someone out once in a while – something you should always be doing anyway!
2) The next time he goes out fishing, he wants to show off his new fishing rod – but he doesn’t want everyone to see his cool fishing rod because it’s obviously too expensive compared to other fishing rods out there. So he brings his smartphone along with him while using the rod so that people don’t notice how expensive his rod is! This way, everybody sees how great he looks wielding his new fishing rod! Or maybe he just likes playing games instead of fishing? Either way – having someone else keep score for him while he plays will make him feel like part of something bigger than himself 
Once again – this could be useful for many people because it makes them feel part of an informal community, not just one person alone pursuing their own interests.
