Google is back making WiFi deals, this time with Earthlink, according to an article at Cnet News. The two companies have teamed up on a bid to provide San Francisco with free WiFi services, as well as a premium fee service.

This is in response to a Request For Proposal (RFP) sent out by the city, which wants to provide affordable, broadband WiFi services for everyone in the vicinity, including low income, underprivileged families.

“Affordable internet that is accessible to all San Francicscans regardless of geography or income is simply essential – we must recognize that access to information is a fundamental government service akin to libraries or public schools,” said Mayor Newsom in a press release.

A total of six bids were handed to the city by the deadline of Tuesday, February 21. The other five bids came from Bridge Global, MetroFi, NextWLAN, Razortooth Communications and SF Metro Connect.
