npub1a4cfqcj5cq9qauuzz33rqq63kudnu6k7x4fe4xep93s7lu5hgk3szqt2kf (npub1a4c…t2kf) I work with parolees in the USA. They get a free "Lifeline" phone that the federal government gives away through 3rd parties on every street corner in poor 'hoods. These are: (a) the cheapest Chinese Android devices with the lowest spec; (b) only have 15GB of data a month. Not only are they painfully slow to use, the data is burned up by the 3rd day of the month due to huge Web payloads, and after that they can't fill out any forms for jobs, welfare, or navigate anywhere with Maps.
