Lack of Broadband Creates Digital Divide

Summary

For most people of the 21st century, the internet has become broadband, due to the slowness of dial-up. Most broadband users generally lack awareness of the amount of non-users. This lack of awareness causes problems because it prevents people from coming up with a collaborative solution. Some rural areas do not possess the signal strength needed to have broadband while other areas lack broadband because of the cost of the infrastructure.
