Digital Reproduction by Alina Asif

Alina Asif

I believe that digital divide has changed our society. almost every person have an access to the internet these days. This helps connecting people. There are no limitations who can use and who cant. Urban areas have more access where as rural it is still very less, almost its close to having nothing. Its good to be well connected with others. This helps you to have ideas and different opinions on your and others ideas. These days if we dont have access to internet we become handicap, like your world has shut down. Many people work through internet these days. In the beginning only few people had the access like men, wealthy, white and young people. But today everyone use it example, women, white, black, children and even old retire people. Some make formal use of internet and some make informal use of internet. But the key point is that everyone use internet these days and is connected to the outer world. A lot of things are influenced by the society. Internet is influenced the most by the society. Social pressure on people force them to use the internet.
