I don't know if this is a regional only thing but there are brick and mortar restaurant supply stores. You usually need a membership to buy from them but you can bulk buy the same food and supplies that restaurants buy.

I think the surprise here is that WiFi routers were not built with surveillance hardware in mind. At least at first.

If there was an option to buy a router with surveillance sonar vs a router without sonar, I'm sure most people would buy the one without the surveillance hardware. But unfortunately it doesn't seem like anyone has that option if they want to use WiFi.

I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to use helicopters to transport them? Or create a series of drones specifically designed to carry them?

If you look at the data, it tells you about 1/3 of those who are illiterate comes from foreigners so that is not surprising. But the largest demographic of illiterates in the US is white people lol

Also they are functionally illiterate. It's a wide encompassing term that ranges from people who can't read English because they just moved here to people who can only read basic words like stop and go or words they encounter often in life but not much more than that.

I would imagine many people who are functionally illiterate just go to work, watch tv, and sleep.

Unfortunately this is accurate. Half of adults in the US are unable to read past a sixth grade level. 20% are functionally illiterate.
