Abstract

There is a growing consensus that communications is a fundamental right. However, achieving digital equality in the broadband age has become considerably more complex than just universal access. This article offers a more nuanced perspective on the widening digital divide that's centered on a user's utility of a broadband connection and outlines networking technologies that place control in users' hands.
