Then perhaps that is a problem that we should tackle, instead of going all Luddite about fairly basic tech because someone cannot afford it?

I even wouldn't be surprised if it resulted in a net economic benefit, because the reduced overhead of new tech is less than amount of money you need to spend to make sure that everyone has access to it.



Libraries already tackle this. As well as other organizations. For example, when I was a kid my main internet pc was at the state extension office.
