Judy Johnson regularly video chats with her family from her living room at Village East Apartments in Johnson City, Tennessee, with the help of Advanced Community WiFi from Spectrum Community Solutions. When she was a young girl in the 1950s, that only happened in sci-fi movies or futuristic cartoons.
