Fewer people in poor countries than in rich ones, own computers and have access to the Internet simply because they are too poor or do not have access to electricity.

The UK, USA and Japan are developed countries with high income. Governments and businesses there can afford to buy these technologies and invest in them. The countries have good technological infrastructure providing reliable access to electricity and the internet. The people who live there can afford to buy computers and other devices. Most of them use technology at home and at home or work. However people who live in poor areas do not have these benefits for they cannot afford the electricity and internet, let along.

"digital have countries" and "digital have not countries." For example, in "digital have not countries," 90% of the population is said to lack even the choice to access digital resources, and would find it difficult or impossible to get access to digital resources even if they wanted to, people who live in "digital have countries" have greater access to a variety of communication media and information. While Internet access may or may not be ubiquitous, it is certainly set up in most schools, companies, and communities in order that people who want Internet access can get it. Therefore, the digital divide is really a continuum of choice.

Effecting People and Culture

The Digital Divide has an extreme impact upon the culture and the people of every region. Technology effects every culture in different ways. Some reasons good, others bad. But, technology changes culture forever. For example in the United States, a technology rich country, components that create culture like relationships, communications, and art have been dramatically changed by technology. However, it seems like some specific customs and cultural traditions have remained unchanged. Trying to imagine people living their lives without internet is basically impossible, the internet provides benefits for everyone.
