Ha-Joon Chang: The net isn't as important as we think

Did the washing machine change the world more than the Internet?

Although the Internet enables us to discover new information it is not a human right. personally i feel that it is a necessity and therefore those who can afford it should have it.

The washing machine liberated workers and enabled humans to have easier lives where they have more spare time.

The Internet has made the world a more Democratic home for its inhabitants as citizens are now able to access information. However, communist countries limit this.

Internet has it limitations:

less secure to do online banking
dangerous for children
Internet security is advised (more cost)
speeds of sites and providers vary
no net neutrality
