"The BBC is reporting that a Spanish firm, Gowex, which provides free Wi-Fi services in major cities world-wide, has filed for bankruptcy, following revelations that financial accounts filed over the past four years were "false". The company supplies services in London, Shanghai, New York and Buenos Aires, as well as Madrid. Other sources report that up to 90% of the company's reported revenue came from "undisclosed related parties" (in other words, from Gowex itself) and that the value of the company's share price was now effectively zero.

That ad-based revenue game is bullsh*t, that died in the early 00s. All about that ppc (pay per click) game like Google doing, except I don't see how they do it without a customized NetZero type browser. And Bongo already got that $7.99 hookup. If I were them, I would have made it only available to Android phones via an app or some sh*t like that that I could control the home page to be a proprietary search engine, and start my own ppc game, but I'm like Fab, y'all don't hear me though :win:
