The Christian Science Monitor Says After spiking in the 1990s and early 2000s, the percentage of adult Americans online has leveled off in the past two years at 63 percent, says a new study from the Pew Internet & American Life Project. That percentage is expected eventually to rise, but not as quickly as some had imagined.
“There would be more growth if only there were programs or opportunities for people who can’t afford it,” she says. “The Internet is clearly indispensible now, and when you have a technology that’s indispensible, there’s no question there’s a role for the government in taking a look at what happens when people don’t have that access … and what are the implications of that.”
