Gov't mulls reducing free Wi-Fi

The Philippine Star

|

November 06, 2024

Claiming that Filipinos are using free Wi-Fi sites to stream videos and scroll through social media, the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) is considering regulating data allowance provided under the Free Public Internet Access Program.

- ELIJAH FELICE ROSALES

The FPIAP is provided an annual funding of at least P2.5 billion, enabling the DICT to establish internet sites in public spaces such as government offices and schools.

Free 100-megabyte data cap is being studied by the DICT. Excess data consumed will be charged.
