All men are created equal before the interwebs

     A UN report has indirectly declared internet access a human right , i dont have time to read it with exams coming but i'v been saying for years that internet access will eventually be a human right.  Keep in mind this is not a 'fundamental declaration of rights' right but a right under Treaty jurisprudence applicable only in a certain sitaution.
    So no : you cannot sue daddy for taking away your 100mbit connection.  It doesnt work that way- maybe in 50 years it will.
