But government can take some steps to make it flexible for the students who can not afford internet at home. sarkar_begum https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294535312 2018-10-18 18:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294535312 Agree https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539515 Access to the internet should be recognized as a human right because it is increasingly required to interact with modern society.]]> 2018-10-18 18:09:51 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539515 Divided https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539808 I am divided on the extent to which internet is considered to be a right. Certainly, people shouldnt be deprived of their freedom to use their internet. ]]> 2018-10-18 18:10:21 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539808 Strongly agree https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539947 Because use of the internet is increasingly becoming an integral component of modern life, I believe that the government should recognize internet access as a human right, and provide public funding to ensure greater access to the internet.]]> 2018-10-18 18:10:33 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294539947 It should not be a human right however the government can ensure it is available in all educational facilities as we have moved to a digital era....so fair game for all paula_brown11 https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294540131 2018-10-18 18:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294540131 Agree courtney_bajwa https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294540149 I think that access to the internet should be a human right. However problems come into play due to the cost. I think that a way to combat this problem is to make free wifi available in public spaces. This does not help people living in rural communities or those who cannot afford devices that support internet use. Providing internet cafes or computer labs for people who don't have their own devices is another option. Finally, laws that regulate the price of internet offered by private companies could be implemented. People could apply for some sort of government aid to pay for internet access. ]]> 2018-10-18 18:10:56 UTC https://padlet.com/anum_ayub/ekwc2vfczj5i/wish/294540149 Internet is not a right, it is not enforceable. It isn't a right if it can be taken away. The internet is a private entity, it is not owned by the canadian government.
