Os 15 por cento da população dos países mais ricos correspondem a 90 por cento dos utiizadores da Internet em todo o mundo."Despite euphoric claims of politicians to the contrary, the gap between the information haves and have-nots is only widening, writes E.D. Mathew, a former international development aid worker. Industrialized countries, with about 15 percent of the world's population, make up nearly 90 percent of all Internet users. There are fewer than two million Internet users on the continent of Africa, compared with more than 12 million in Britain. "The remarkable information technology advances have created vast new opportunities, yet they have also generated 'new divides' between rich and poor," UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said last week at a meeting of information and broadcasting ministers in Bangkok".
