"Internet access is today necessary for leading a minimally decent life,
which doesn’t just mean survival but rather includes political rights
that allow us to influence the rules that shape our lives and hold
authorities accountable. That is why rights such as free speech, free
association, and free information are among the central rights included
in the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights. And, crucially,
everyone needs to have roughly equal opportunities to exercise their
political rights."
