I think it has great benefits, but I don't think it is as important as clean drinking water, food and education. |

What about FOX news? I think access to FOX news should be a fundamental right. I feel disenfranchised if I don't get to watch it.

I disagree.....And I believe me and bob are on the same page...Internet is a priviledge, not a right just like having a driver's licese is a priviledge, not a right. If we say human right then we go into the discussion whether when viewing the internet should we have the right to look at naked children? Pedophilia is against the law and looking, and saving images of naked children is not socially wrong but its illegal. When referring to "human rights" I believe the focus should be on, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness (logical happiness). Human rights refer to things that are naturally established. We can live withou the internet, what we cannot live without is liberty since being captive is not a fulfilling life and thus inevitably we die in that condition. Living without internet we may become informationless, but we still can live, besides there is always the news paper!

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I will say it shoud be mandatory (like in the USA constitution) to have it as a basic human right.

I agree. while useful and helpful in all sorts of scenarios. internet access isnt a human right. Those should be reserved for things that actually do matter, like mutual respect, peace, etc

Internet access is no more a human right than cell phone useage and ownership or car ownership
