A company that goes by the name Outernet is aiming to mass produce a device that is capable of delivering free Internet anywhere in the world. The device is called Lantern, and it is currently being crowd-funded on IndieGoGo. It’s an interesting concept, one that could solve thousands of problems in several countries around the world. Just imagine certain places in Africa that are without Internet, now having the ability to get information with relative ease.These digital files can be anything, from images, videos and webpages to music and other things.This project could be used for education in many countries around the world. However, one should keep in mind that Lantern is free to use, but it does not replace normal Internet and thus should not be relied upon for everything.

How Does it work ?
Working Process
We should also point out that battery life for this device will likely be very terrible, so unless it comes with a plugin charger, we would not recommend giving it a spin at all.
The goal here was to raise $200,000, but that has been surpassed in just six days. There’s a high chance this project could hit the million dollar mark.
