Depending on your country, but as the title suggests, a separate category should recognise the internet as a fundamental human right.
Currently, we have the following:
  • Freedom of speech
  • Right to education
  • Freedom of assembly
  • Civil and political rights
  • Freedom of movement
  • Right to life
  • Right to a fair trial
  • Equality before the law
  • Freedom from discrimination
  • Freedom of association
  • Freedom of religion
  • Right to privacy
  • Right-to-work law
  • Freedom from Torture
  • Economic, social and cultural rights
  • Freedom from slavery
I'm not saying that it should be free, but instead treated like water
"access to water and sanitation is recognised by the United Nations as human rights"
I don't know where I'm going with this, it may be more of a rant, but we are here discussing issues on the web about a digital currency and the rights to digital property.
If you (still) consider yourself as a "citizen" you will never have rights, only privileges.

It's true, and that is what scares me.
I see many comments/concerns about a 51% attack, a 5-dollar wrench attack etc, but we currently (westerns) have the privilege of internet access, and it's hard to imagine being cut off.
Maybe I've spent too much time on Twitter, and I should take my tin foil hat off, but when I see people being cancelled/shadow banned and other online privileges revoked, it's hard not to think about what is next. Especially when you hear things like digital passports for internet access, or the UK gov trying to gain access to p2p encryption (https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3137)
On a plus, I always look at what Cuba achieved, and built their own internet.

Again... People leverage from other people. When you don't educate by situation you need to pay for it. Like Education system 🫂 that's why I am joining #plebchain and #zapathon ... To help people receive Zap and experience the #bitcoin ⚡🫂
