Dem Presidential Hopeful: ‘Wifi Is a Human Right’
Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, considered a possible Democratic presidential candidate for 2016, said that wifi Internet access is a “human right”. He said, “Baby boomers and older were often told that if we specialize in terms of our skills, we will be more secure and prosperous, that the definition of ‘making it’ was living out in the suburbs as far way as possible with the biggest lawn possible. Young people have flipped that on its head. Younger people are choosing to live in cities. They realize that connections to each other are making us better. That wifi is a human right. That proximity is important to entrepreneurship, access to capital and talent and diversity. There is an opportunity there for us as a nation to embrace that new perspective.”
