Скачать или смотреть Are We Creating a Permanent Digital Underclass? | Technopolis

Internet access has become essential for modern American life, but current policies don't treat it that way. In this special bonus episode of Technopolis, hosts Jim Kapsis and Molly Turner talk to Maya Wiley about a core piece of the infrastructure for our tech future: broadband.

Wiley, a digital equity expert and MSNBC contributor, breaks down the history of broadband access, the severity of the inequity, and what it costs us all when some people just can't get online. We also talk about local efforts to improve broadband access, including Wiley's own work in New York City to turn old phone booths into free Wifi kiosks.
