Internet access is a basic human right: A Q&A with Keren Elazari

I totally agree, why should people in power run a monopoly on knowledge, one can reply “because knowledge is power” but words only have as much power as we give them, I might sound a bit arrogant but I think this is true to an extent. you can witness how words change over time e.g. Gay, this use to mean happy in old English but in modern times it was a homophobic word used to brand, however gay people now use the word to empower them selves, another example is the word “Paki” used to diminish Pakistani people, but some take the word and use it as a positive representation thereby changing other peoples views. #Free knowledge
