Sure his logic is true, but the purpose of classifying the internet as a human right is to give people without that luxury the ability to keep up to the rest of the world. The internet is not "merely a method of communication," but access to information. Think about what will happen to the less fortunate when technology takes over and books are no longer printed.
Yeah well, "when books are outlawed, only outlaws will have books"....
Books will eventually no longer be printed, because of imbeciles that think the "Kindle" is actually a book.
This just in; entitlement to information isn't a human right either. Otherwise, there would be no such thing as college tuition, and we'd all get a free PHD.
I just priced internet only with Comcast, for internet only, (cable), and it would be $69.95 @ month. Now, if "I dun had me these kids", there exists the possibility I could get internet for $10.00 a month.
Now, try to picture how sick of people like you railing about social entitlements I really am.
And finally, I absolutely, positively, don't care what happens to the "less fortunate".
The only outcome I'm certain of for the "less fortunate", is that they'll screw as much as they can, as often as they can, as hard as they can, in order to provide us a never ending supply of more, "less fortunates". Either before or after which, many of them will sell their food stamps to buy either crack or heroine.
You are completely wrong. Freedom is a right and it can be taken away, ever heard of slavery... These rights are created to make things better for the people who don't have them, not you ignorant people who take them for granted.
Every time you take to the internet, you type something more profoundly bizarre.
Although, the foregoing statement my be a personal "best" for you.
To put it another way, "WTF on earth does internet access have to do with slavery"?
