Introduction: What is the digital divide?
The digital divide hinders the possible developments that ICT can offer to the most disadvantaged people that didn’t have the luck to be born in like a country like Sweden or in a city like New York where you can easily get internet. It slows down the production and exchange of information, accentuates economic setbacks and dangerously increases lack of understanding between people. As such, it causes and cultural impoverishment. Finally, it hampers efforts to promote cultural diversity.
