Maybe instead of taking things away, we should be providing tax funded public wifi in more places. The internet isn't a luxury anymore, and those without homes still have a right to access it (yeah even at night).
brilliant. it's practically a utility at this point; i hate going places and seeing weird shitty scam 'freeATTwifi' everywhere. public internet now.
Sure, but that’s not the responsibility of the library in question. This article is great, an obvious victim and an obvious villain for easy consumption and allegiance, but there’s definitely more to the story. If the homeless are making the lives of the library staff a living hell then I don’t see a problem with this honestly.
