Speaking of Florida, where my grandparents had a place in Hollywood the city and its "partner" built, with much ballyhoo, a wifi system that was supposed to cover the entire city with utopian connectivity. From day one the system didn't work worth a damn, and they eventually had to turn much of it off because it was messing up residents' connectivity to their home wifi networks.
