Funnily enough, this could technically work in a place with unsafe drinking water but with freezers.

    Depends on the water though since some may have chemical contamination that won't go away by just boiling (I believe UNICEF has a section on their website about it).

    It's why you are never ever supposed to drink storm water in any form (other than potentially rain collection)

    Why would you need to freeze it though?

    Just boil and store at room temperature?

    But if they're worried about contamination, they wouldn't be storing boiling hot water in plastic bags. Microplastics ☠️
