As terrible as this is, access to Wikipedia is hardly a "right".
- woodandsteel 7y agoIf a right is something that makes society better if people have it, then access to Wikipedia or something like it is definitely a right. And in fact it falls under freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
- archie2 7y ago> If a right is something that makes society better if people have it. That's not what a right is. Saying that access to Wikipedia is a right implies the ability to coerce somebody to give it to you if you lack it. At best it's a privilege.
