Search engine giant Google has announced that its Google Fiber project has begun offering free high-speed internet access to residents in affordable housing.
This is great news for low-income Americans who simply can’t find enough spare cash in their limited budgets to pay for gigabyte speed internet service, which can cost $70 or more per month.
Who are the first lucky Americans to benefit from Google’s giveaway? It’s being introduced at West Bluff, a HUD-assisted project in Kansas City, Missouri. A Google Fiber press release said, “… we’re working with local affordable housing providers to connect up to nine properties, reaching more than 1,300 families in the metro area.”
And what about low-income HUD-assisted folks who don’t live in Kansas City? Plans call for Google Fiber to roll out the program in the other cities where it offers internet service — current including Austin, Texas and Provo, Utah. The company intends to move into six more metro areas (Atlanta, Georgia; Charlotte and Raleigh-Durham, N.C; Nashville, Tennessee; Salt Lake City, Utah; Phoenix, Arizona; Portland, Oregon, San Antonio, Texas; and San Jose, California)
Google says it is investigating potential deployment in eleven other cities.
Although this new program is aimed at America’s neediest families, anyone in cities served by Google Fiber can sign-up for the company’s high-speed Internet service. But here’s the catch — if they don’t live in HUD-assisted housing, they won’t qualify for this special, free Google giveaway. Instead, they are required pay a $300 construction fee that’s waived for qualified low-income HUD residents. (Don’t feel too bad for them, though, because Google cuts them a break by allowing them to spread the payment over 12 months.)
In Kansas City, Google is following the example set by Comcast’s Internet Essentials program. that is, they are working with Connecting for Good, Surplus Exchange, and other charitable organizations to offer huge discounts on refurbished tablets, laptops, and phones. Computer labs and classes in which residents can learn to use the Internet are on the drawing boards.
The Google Fiber program is the latest advance in the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s ConnectHome program. But Google is far from being alone in this effort. Combined with similar programs, millions of financially-struggling Americans have never had more ways to get online.
As PCMag.com reports:
Google is not the only provider participating in ConnectHome. CenturyLink will hook up HUD households in Seattle for $9.95 per month the first year and $14.95 for the next four years, similar to what Comcast has done with Internet Essentials. Cox Communications will do the same in Macon, Meriden, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans for eligible K-12 families residing in public housing, as will Sprint.
In the Choctaw Tribal Nation, Cherokee Communications, Pine Telephone, Suddenlink Communications, and Vyve Broadband will also work to provide high-speed Internet to 425 of Choctaw’s public housing residents.
There hasn’t been a lot of good news in the world of cheap Internet lately. And that makes this Google fiber announcement a little sweeter for low-income Americans.
Please roll out the service in more cities as fast as you can, Google. Millions of financially-struggling folks are eagerly awaiting.

I will be 65 this year, and I’m disabled and in a wheelchair., I get Snap food stamps, and frequent a Food Basket to hep with the cost of food, although I sill find myself with not enough to eat properly the last week of the month.

Noreen says
Comcast live essentials has told me that I have to do without TV, landline and internet for ninety days because I have a contract with them. My cost as a HUD low income resident is at $148 monthly and I cannot afford it. Contract is over in Oct 2018. I think I will cancel and just go to Century Link. It is wrong for Comcast to do this to low income people but I will just pay more for my cell and get internet that way. I will hook up an antenna and will get a landline via a phone company. COMCAST IS WRONG. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT CREDIT RATINGS. I will cancel them this fast!

Do whatever you want, Noreen.

I qualify for and am receiving California Lifeline, which includes internet access on my cellphone. Why can’t I also get this access on my home computer??

“You may have only one California Lifeline account at any time.” ?!?!? I KNOW THIS!

Giving the poor internet is great. But why is it for those who live in HUD housing? What about those of us on disability! We Don’t get help with our rent..don’t get food stamps or any other income. But yet we have to live on $755.00 amonth.an other poor folks can’t get it! Just not right.

I live in Cibolo Texas in a senior complex and am on a fixed income and need internet service. Can you help me please?
Linda M Levin says
I would recommend no one trust CenturyLink. I contacted CenturyLink to sign up for their Internet service for an advertised $29.99 per month. Before service was installed I received a letter showing the monthly cost was going to be a lot more. So I contacted CenturLink customer service to talk to them about the issue. Towards the end of the call I was told it would be $45.99 per month. CenturyLink has actually been charging me a little over $80.00 per month which is more than I can afford. That is why I am shopping around to try find a more affordable Internet service.
Mary Headley says
I had the same problem, and I still have them, only my bill went from $76.00 to $107
how do these companies get away with it, you know its all about MONEY these days
its nothing but GREED, and as always low Income and the seniors suffer the most, I am currently looking for a cheaper Internet, no luck so far.
Myra Holmes says

Good news
Steve says
Google, which realized that an individual’s personal data is incredibly valuable. The more of it you collect, the more valuable it is. After all, if you have a good idea of what a person does and doesn’t like, where they go, what their hobbies are, and who they hang out with, then it is easy to target them with products and services that they are likely to be interested in purchasing. Cha-ching!
In addition to using its search engine to track users’ interests, Google scans all emails sent via its Gmail service. Note that this means emails not only belonging to Gmail users, but any emails sent to Gmail users from other services!
Indeed, Google recently quietly removed its own self-imposed moratorium on combining data collected via search results and via scanning customers’ emails.
JAMES Coleman says
Well, well,well. Another company offering to people in public housing. Hooray. All poor people do not live in public housing so I am NOT IMPRESSED by this announcement I the least. I see this as just another big company hoping on the band wagon and I urge poor people not to fall for it. It is nothing more than show. If GOOGLE meant well, it would be DIFFERENT than the rest and offer their service to ALL POOR PEOPLE WHO QUALIFY. I can’t believe tube people at Cheap Internet are so quick to heal praise on Google. Save your praise for someone who offers their service to ALL POOR PEPLE AND NOT APP SELECT FEW. SO, I SAY TO GOOGLE,STOP RUNNING YOUR GAME ON THE POOR. AND WHAT’ with the FEW states. Remember this, ALL POOR PEOPLE DO NOT FIND THIS IMPRESSIVE AT ALL. WANT TO REALY IMPRESS PEOPLE? STOP being a FOLLOWER AND BE A ‘LEADER’ AND OFFER YOUR SERVICE TO PALL OF U.S. POOR PEOPLE. THAT WOULD MAKE YOU A REAL ‘LEADER’,Get off the bandwagon.
LuAnn Gleeson says
I agree. I am disabled, and because I was previously self-employed, but went back to college at age 50 to acquire an degree and paralegal certificate to find regular employment. When I graduated near the top of my class at age 54, I could not find a job! Apparently, not having experience and being over 50 is a negative that far outweighs a 3.875 GPA. Why, at my age I thought I could get a decent job over the age of 50 with 14 years of successful business management is beyond me. I believed that Equal Opportunity would happen. in an age where employers are trying to avoid paying health insurance by keeping their employees right on the edge of the full-time employment threshold to avoid having to provided insurance, I was insane to think I stood a chance. Older workers have higher risks of potential health issues, so why would any employer want to hire someone older, and maybe more competent when they can get a healthy, younger and cheaper person to insure as a full time worker? My faith in the willingness of people to hire qualified, persons and provide health insurance to the over 50 crowd was vastly over-estimated
Since then, I became ill, and have become completely disabled. I can not get SSI because I have over Two Thousand dollars
( $2000. 00 ) in a small retirement fund that I am barely surviving on for now and living below the poverty line. I cannot get Social Security disability because,job market was apparently saturated in 2012, and as I said, I over rated the “equal opportunities.” I cannot get social security because I am only 58, and wouldn’t get enough from my earnings I made prior to my self- employment to survive on anyway. the only public assistance I have applied for is Medicaid coverage, because I am disabled.
We are the throw-a-way society. Of our worn or outdated possessions, and of our less than useful senior citizens. I must salute any society that respects their elder citizens. I wish ours did. May God help you if you are disabled, especially as an older America who is too old for most help and too young for Social Security. It is a shame that it is likely I wont live long enough to even collect social security.
I sure wish we could benefit from some of the programs out there for low income FAMILIES. I believe it would be an act of kindness most of us in poverty and who are too old or unable to work would cherish. Perhaps we deserve nothing, because we wont grow up to contribute to society, but many of us have contributed to society, and to charities, and have volunteered our time to help others in our lifetimes, some more than others, but we have.
I would love nothing more than to be able to work and to give to others again. Being disabled and broke is a terrible way to live.

Lu Ann, I too am disabled, and live like a pauper….It’s awful, I’ve been working since the age of 13, and I am now a 43 year old single mother/grandmother, I’ve ALWAYS been single and raised/took care of MY children with NO help from the outside/anyone. I have had neck surgery in 2011 and now have an 8 inch metal plate that holds my head onto my neck, my quality of life….Don’t make me laugh, is shit! I worked my ass off my entire life, I receive a whopping $515 a month, what in the hell am I going to do with THAT?!?!? It’s been a REAL struggle and sometimes we don’t even eat….Half the time when i open the door, I pray the electric is STILL on, it’s been a nightmare…I could absolutely go on, BUT you are right, we don’t as Americans, take care of our people, at ALL! Where is all that money I paid in out of my hefty paychecks each week since the age of 13?? Calculated to $515 a month GTFOH! So I have resorted to making money “other” ways…It’s a shame, we have to take the risk of being taken away from our families, just to put food on the table and keep the lights on smdh, WTH happened to the world?! As a society we do NOTHING for our older generation/seniors, it’s sad, you just feel like giving up every day and just throwing in the towel…Sure, I would love to give up the hustle and THIS life, in a second… ALL my life I’ve done “it” the right way, and it didn’t help me in the end when my body gave out…And if getting it illigeally seems immoral or against what you believe in? Walk a mile in my shoes AND then come back and tell me how you REALLY feel…And I’ll tell any cop, judge, authorities the same….what if it were YOUR family????

Msmonique72 says
Jenna,
Hope you don’t mind my comment, but if you were working and paying taxes since you were 13 till around 40 you should be able to collect SSDI @ around $2,000.00 per month, also money per child under 18., So you really should talk to an SSDI attorney if you are having trouble getting it.
My little sister had a massive stroke @35 years old, left her mentally and physically disabled. She started working at 15 till she got sick, she gets SSDI, she now gets $1,895 per month, went down when her son turned 19
Sandra says

I’m a senior and low income, living in Redondo Beach CA. I now have Spectrum internet and even though they advertise assistance to the needy, they don’t have it, well not where I live.
Isn’t that called misrepresentation?
CheapInternet.com Administrator says
We have to do some guesswork here, Linda, because we’re not familiar with your particular situation. Spectrum does offer the program, but you can’t get it if you are a current customer paying regular prices. It’s a terrible flaw in the program (ALL the programs, in fact, have the same regulation), but it is the way the system works.

Good luck waiting for that! I’d love to see Google Fiber everywhere but they’ve hardly expanded in years. I’ve wondered what’s the reason for the project in the first place??
I think they have good intentions but Google moves at a snail’s pace with everything they do including Google Voice. They start a project and then make no improvements for years. Then they start multiple similar projects which are full of bugs and seem to finish none of them.
CheapInternet.com Administrator says

Steve says
Wonder if this is a market ploy to mine users information. That untapped part of society, “America’s neediest families” that can’t afford to register with anything online, and become active in online circles to data mining practices of the 3 letter governments agency’s and big businesses like Google, Facebook, and Windows, then to have it trickle on down to other countries that are monitoring and mining the Americans life.
Been like this for some time in anything “free”, being technology based – computer software or phone apps, all offered free that mines users information to the ad frontiers and then some. Being online just opens up a new can of worms into more peoples life’s and information.
Google, Facebook and Microsoft – if not working with the Government at least makes it a lot easier for them to know every beat of your heart and our likes as well as dislikes. Who’s docile and extreme. Were all technology lab rats in this bowl of online soup.
Sorry if I seem cynical, but it’s more to the motives than the method.
We all can be classified by our blood types as to a label of which one runs in us, (if known and by whom knows), then the important thing – who do we not want to know, online activities exposed and a digital trial created are algorithms into each one of us to be tapped and like blood types are classified and labeled so to becomes our online life which is a reflection on ourselves in everyway…
Richard C says
“Wonder if this is a market ploy to mine users information.”
If it is, then the users are willingly entering into it. I mean, come on, if they’re not paying for the service, then someone is, and they’re the product. That’s pretty basic knowledge.
Having said that, Google has shown me, to my satisfaction at least, over the years that they have served as my primary email provider (plus the many other Google services that I use) that they can be trusted not to mis-use the private information that they learn about me.
There is a fine line between advertising and mis-using advertising information, and so far, Google has not crossed that line with me.
J.C. says
I thoroughly agree with Steve. There has always been the needy but Google and other powers that be didn’t give a shit whether they (the needy) had online access or not. Only now, with The Internet Of Things revealing every nook and cranny of internet users’ activities, are they supplying it.Of course it’s a market ploy! It’s not for our benefit, but theirs! Instead of saying, “Thank You”‘ I could say, “You’re Welcome”.. But hey! If we don’t have to pay an arm and a leg .. so what!? If anyone has anything they want hidden from this world, they should go live under a rock!!

At what cost was freedom fought throughout our American centuries of war and existence – To what’s the price for privacy in the now digital age 2017 and beyond?
When a physical tracking to your surveillance was needed to know all about you and who you were associated with – is now trapped in your digital trails left online (personal data profiles) every time you go there and use that medium to call records and credit card/debit purchases, not forgetting the metro cameras scattered all about.
Did the Nazi principles and logic that were fought against in World War II survive? Or did the cost of using the Nazi technology captured of the time go on to contaminate all life there after?
A time line comparison of what was moral right in 1930’s-1940’s and what seems as morally fit in today’s USA – yields a stark contrast – when a totalitarian government, territorial expansion, anti-Semitism, and Aryan supremacy seems to still live. The fact more citizens are jailed and prisoned now than ever in our history. Every night in most metro neighborhoods crime and killings happen as common events to present day life. Our own government not only fears outside combatants, but it’s own peoples. The rich buy’s attorneys to bent the underlying principles of laws to their advantage and the poor, yes the poor wish life was to include them in making it week to week.
So who is Google really helping?
Carolyn Albers says
With all this moaning about why don’t “I qualify for this i.e. SSID? Find a case worker, paid by the state & their expertise is opening doors to all programs. Ask questions to others in like situations. There are many non-profits ready to help.With SSID, money may be put into a safety deposit box of a trusted friend.Also for anyone older seeking work, AARP, this month has a comprehensive article on job success. Take notes, network w/ others, i.e. churches. No car for 6 years, but seem to be where I choose to go. Think of those fleeing war zones,or homeless. Food stamps aren’t unreasonable & elderly rent credit. Believe in yourself, healthy examples for the youngsters.

Excellent advice, Carolyn.
Noreen says
Sorry, but I am skeptical of anything spouted by the above person before I know her age or qualifications to make speeches about anything to do with poverty-stricken disabled or seniors existing on the pittance doled out by the government. Our social security disability and retirement rolls have been inundated by illegal people who come here for the freebies that American citizens cannot get and if one is a legitimate citizen, we have to jump through hoops. Not convinced by the blarney!

Blah blah cheerleader? Some cannot work and are old!
