I agree and this is why we are not saying "the right to access to
Internet". As I said we are not yet agreed on the wording specially that
our constitution will be written in Arabic first and than translated to
other language.
What I am saying here is "the right to access to networks" regardless
the technologies. It is even important that the constitution is not
written based on our today need, but it is also to answer future
challenges, and I see the "access to networks" as a right to everyone.
And here I am not speaking about what we will use this right for.
