The assumption that for the few percent of the world population who are
presently using the Internet, the balance between the positive and
negative effects of their use falls heavily on the positive side remains
to be demonstrated.
While connectivity has tremendous "enabling" capabilities, it has also
enormous pollution capabilities.
In any case connecting people whithout granting them the basic
conditions for making a judicious use of the tool, in the first place
through general education, is simply expanding the TV brainwashing.
