Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

A tiered subscription model that offers a low-cost 'safety-only' plan for families on a budget.
A community-funded sponsorship program where premium features are subsidized for low-income families.
A policy proposal for a 'digital safety utility' standard that requires basic location and emergency alerts to be free for all users.
