unconsumption: poptech: New York starts turning payphones into free Wi-fi hotspots The hotspots are initially coming to ten payphones in three of the boroughs and will be open to the public to access for free. You can see a list of sites here. Users just agree to the terms, visit the city’s tourism website and then they’re up and running. Currently, there are no ads on the service, but there could be in the future. The effort is part of the city’s larger goal of providing more digital inclusion for residents. And it’s also aimed at helping figure out the future of the city’s payphones, which are a source of complaints from many residents because they attract crime or are just plain ugly. The payphones have been outfitted with “military grade” antennas, that provide service up to 300 feet away. The $2,000 installation is being provided for free by Van Wagner Communications, which owns many of the city’s payphones. The plan is to eventually spread the Wi-Fi hotspots to more of the city’s 13,000 payphones with the maintenance and ongoing costs paid by the payphone companies. We’ve come across obsolete phone booths turned into community book-swapping spots, bars, art venues, EV charging stations, and now, in New York City, free Wi-fi hotspots — excellent! A couple of years ago, there was talk in China of converting many of that country’s unused phone booths into Wi-fi spots. Mentioned here.
