Google will stop offering its free WiFi in several countries

The drop in prices of mobile tariffs, which are already very accessible, is the reason that the company has given to end this initiative in a number of countries, as has already been reported.

Goodbye to the initiative

Originally, Google Station emerged as an alternative designed to offer free Internet connection in train stations in India. This plan was gradually extended in other places and also reached countries like Indonesia, in addition to Mexico or Brazil. In some of the countries it has been confirmed that it will be eliminated, but in others such as India or South Africa it is maintained.

Most likely, in the countries where it is maintained, it will be done with third-party aid. So the company will probably sign a collaboration agreement with operators, so that they are in charge of offering this connection.

It has been a good initiative by Google, which now comes to an end. For many users it has been a good help, having access to the Internet for free, something that many people could not afford.
