NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Bahamas Park Connect is providing free wifi access to communities across New Providence.

While this is a positive step, officials say not everyone is going to use the service for good. Now, they’re urging users to be aware of the dangers.

Hundreds of residents can now access free wifi at several parks across the island.
