Définition

  • Internet use is rapidly spreading to the developing world, bringing connectivity to individuals and groups and promoting the creation, maintenance, and transformation of communities on a global scale. But if in the developed world the Internet complements or is slowly replacing other telecommunication media—such as telegraph, traditional mail, fax, and local or longdistance telephone—in the developing world, access to the Internet provides possibilities for communication among peoples who previously could not contact others who were distant from them.
