Online and On Point: Broadband Usage in Canada and the United States
In: Journal of information policy: JIP, Band 3, S. 123-157
ISSN: 2158-3897
Abstract
Have we exhausted supply-side solutions to bridging the "digital divide?" The evidence suggests we may have, according to the four authors of this article. Comparing Canadian and American broadband penetration data, they find that eliminating the "availability gap" is a necessary but not sufficient condition to solving the adoption gap. An analysis of citizens' reasons for non-adoption suggests a basis for more emphasis on demand-side policies, especially with respect to low income, disadvantaged, or uncertain users.
