digital connection as running water



As we have bigger opportunities to get digital access, we also faced new challenges. Government have bigger chances to login to find our information from local points they have for us. Almost every small municipalite in my state had free connection for our communities and we are using it as some are not afraid but local women in their communities are not even using phones as they fear for their lives making those local points unsafe or not even an option for them.



And even though government may have access, obstacles are not connections or the chance to login. In my town obstacles are within our own homes, husbands and relatives. Those women lived far away. They are in remote towns and they are just getting to use cellular phones, but in a small scale. They are controlled by their fathers, husbands and male relatives and they can not get what they want, as if they did, they will get access to what connection to the world gives you: FREEDOM.



We may get many places to have access, but to me what we need is that companies known the real truth about connection, which by now should be FREE for everyone, without any type of discrimination.



I will recommend technology companies to work very hard to make connections a free right. Having access from anywhere in the planet in secured connections, individuals from all over the planet should login to have the pleasure to be free. We are still slaves of new things. As old slavery finished we are in a dangerous border where we may think we are free but we are not. If private companies could understand that, they could even find very clever people living in other places in this planet which right now are silenced by not having free access.



If we continue solving the issue of using technology as a closed option there is not chance we find solutions to feel secure, because if it is not free, it means is manipulated by someone. ¿By who?



If it becomes FREE it is already SECURE. It is like running water. Clean water to me is equal to digital access which is there for all of us, but companies and countries stopped the signal making it private to have control.



¿Why?



Not making it a human free right as it is "running water" the only thing we get is to be slaves and keep ourselves living with fear and in a not safe planet. Everywhere. Anywhere.



I do not fear, I do not even think as I write this words which I believe so deeply in.



But I know is not the case for many in my town, state or country. They will not go to drink of a that "clean water" in that beautiful lake which is being watched by others, and they will not feel safe to drink being watch with guns or even worse telling you that you will have to pay to drink of that "water" or, that they will give you just five minutes to drink of that "clean water".



It feels not fair. Because many of us do not have equal resources to have access to "water", even though someone is telling us to drink because is healthy, pure, the best or free. We know that is being controlled and we have to moved carefully by the mood finding small opportunities to drink of that clean water for small instants to connect to our own specie in many other parts of this planet.



We could find secure ponds to drink "clean water" if the whole planet could see water and technology as a right we all have just for the fact we have it in our planet. Good things have to be share by all, not by some.
