Wifi is a recent thing he has acquired, not something he has had for 28 years. I doubt the 78 year old man browses reddit and hackernews. Probably more of a weather tool.

- glenneroo 9y agoWho knows what he's using it for, he setup a Facebook account and separate page for the island where he posts photos and videos multiple times per week: > In response to increasing development of the region, an internet company established a Wi-Fi connection on Budelli, connecting Morandi and his beloved piece of paradise to the world through social media[0]. Embracing this new form of communication is his concession on behalf of a larger purpose—to facilitate a bond between people and nature by exposing them to its beauty[1]. A bond Morandi hopes will motivate people to care for the withering planet. A lot of the photos also have various filters applied. He clearly understands this new smartphone technology. It's only a matter of time before someone asks him to do an AMA on Reddit.
