LinkNYC
LinkNYC is an announced network to cover New York City with free Wi-Fi service. The plan was announced by the mayor's office on November 17, 2014.〔 It aims to bring free, encrypted, gigabit wireless internet coverage to the five boroughs by converting old payphones into hotspot points. The deployment is set to start by late 2015.〔
== Background ==
On April 30, 2014, the New York City Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications requested proposals for how to go about converting the city's over 7,000 dated payphones into a city-wide Wi-Fi network. Previously a competition was held seeking ideas to "reinvent" the payphones and 125 responses suggested a Wi-Fi network, but none came with plans of how that would be accomplished. So a new competition was held and the winner stood to receive a contract to maintain up to 10,000 communication points.〔
The bid was awarded to the consortium CityBridge, which consists of Qualcomm, Titan, Control Group, and Comark.〔 In June 2015, Control Group and Titan announced their merger into one company, known as Intersection, and acquisition by a consortium of investors led by Sidewalk Labs, a subsidiary of Google.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theverge.com/2015/6/23/8834863/google-sidewalk-labs-linknyc-free-wifi )〕
