For anyone who has been caught at an airport or mall without data probably knows about AlwaysOn. The company that provides many Wi-Fi hotspots in the country has announced that it will allow users free access to said hotspots on 27 April, or Freedom Day.
Usually only the first 30 minutes or 50MB of data is free while connected to its platform, but it’s now opening up the service to all users for the entire day.

“We believe that everyone should have access to fast, affordable WiFi. Why? Because, quite frankly, the Internet is awesome and everyone deserves a piece of the pie,” the company noted in its newsletter release.
