How does wireless Internet address the Digital Divide?
Today’s world requires that everyone has access to information which increasingly requires access to broadband. For various reasons, access to these services is limited for some people. In particular, low income families, seniors, the disabled, and limited English speakers may be less likely to have access to the Internet. The LA WiFi initiative anticipates helping to bridge the digital divide by facilitating access to cost effective Internet services and by fostering community programs which offer more than just Internet access to Los Angeles’ communities.
