Abstract
  • Since the advent of the Internet, the concept of the "Digital Divide," has been at the forefront of governmental policy discussions. The current president and his administration have made huge strides in working to help Americans gain access to broadband services. However, the issues of connecting Americans to high-speed Internet go further than the expansion of broadband infrastructure. With the introduction of the smartphone to the global market, the ways in which we interact with information have changed drastically. This study seeks to determine whether currently available information services are affordable to the population at large.
