vane112844yInternet is pay for download right now except free wifi hotspots ( still paying ) and free hosting providers ( they’re still paying).
I don’t know any country with free internet all over the place like I don’t know any country with 100% cellular coverage.
You can make big free private network but to connect to internet you need to pay. Except your network is so big and fast you can exchange your payment for traffic but you need to pay for infrastructure anyway.
Infras are biggest costs nobody see.
Those are billions of dollars under the Sea, ground and in space so we can speak across continents.
Damn.
