Human Rights are whatever we collectively decide they are; they're a social contract explicit or implicit, but entirely of our making. So why not make Internet Access a human right? In a paradigm where technology enhanced freedom of information and Internet access is required for most people's daily tasks, why is this not a necessity? Could you get by in the contemporary world without it? Most of us could not. Imagining a world where we throwback to only what's inherent to technologically un-enhanced human beings (even stone tools are technology) to set the mark for what determines a human right is absurd; that's not the world we live in. At some point in the future, bet on it, this kind of thing _will_ be required for daily life; it's only a question now because there remains a significant population for whom it's not.
