"Digital divide is modern society's failure in realizing net neutrality. There is an oligopoly over American media with only six companies owning 90% of the market, compared to fifty companies in 1983. Not only does this mean that the majority of our information comes from the same six companies, but also that there's not enough competition, causing unaffordable prices for most. Only the well-off have good internet, which is, according to Crawford, mostly "white, middle-class, urban" (2011). While 72% of white Americans have wired internet access, only 55% of African-American and 57% of Hispanic Americans have it. The invisible divide deepens even further with income disparities. At the income level of $75,000 per year, more than 90% of people has wired high-speed internet at home (Federal Communications Commission, 2011), while only 40% of the houses at an income level of $25,000 have any kind of internet access at home (Department Of Commerce, 2011).."
