“The Internet-the vast network of telephone and cable lines, wireless connections, and satellite systems designed to link and carry digital information worldwide was initially described as an information superhighway.” (Campbell pg. 41). The Internet allows for ease in communication within e-mails, but it also guarantees the easy availability of information.

Recently, activists setup websites to support their campaign and in a week’s time, more than 800,000 Indians have sent emails to their telecom regulatory authority, asking for free internet. The authority have published an 117 page article on their website laying down the rules of modern world internet as Over The Top (OTT) services but those based on the 1838 act of information sharing. Much of the focus of this campaign was on one of the telecom provider’s idea to make the internet free of charge to consumers and charge the service companies to put their content on telecom provider’s mobile app. This is again against the net neutrality since only the companies who pay more, will be able to deliver information to consumers using this

Access to Internet is a prerequisite to go digital. But how many indians have the fortune of possessing it? As per TRAI report, the figure is not more than 28 per cent of the population. Out of 36.74 core internet subscribers till September, 2016, 24.7 core of the connections are concentrated only in cities. Urban India is way ahead with 61.9 internet subscriptions per 100 people while rural India is struggling with 13.7 subscriptions per 100 people. Digital disparity is so high that Delhi alone has 2.2 core internet connections while the entire North-East lags behind with just 4.3 lakh connection. Half of the 3 core connections in Maharashtra are concentrated in Mumbai.
