The work of trying to find wifi for free, or at least for
the price of a cuppa, has been trying. I have only found two places in this
metropolis which have free wifi for customers.
I have not found any “hot spots” either.
Amazing. This means either that the area is full of people
who can afford wifi out of their homes and/or phones, or that this is not a
high usage area.
I find it puzzling that the supposedly most technically
advanced country in the world can actually have cities over 100,000 people and no
hot spots, no public wifi in the town center or more than two places which
offer the public wifi.
Why do you suppose this is the case? Is it the lack of
interest in serving a wider public?
Is it the horrible monopolies of the companies? Is it just
plain incompetence?
The mail boxes have almost all disappeared as well. If one
wants to mail an international letter, one must go to one of two post offices,
both of which one needs a car to find.
Are Americans becoming so isolationist that the local post offices
in stores no longer take international letters?
I have been told this.
What an odd country.
