dc.description.abstract Since it was coined in the early eighties following the Maitland commission for worldwide telecommunications development, much has been written about the concept of digital divide. Everything to date in the literature about the subject point to its complexity and dynamism, resulting in efforts aimed at closing the divide contributing to widening it. It is a problem with properties of insolvability.
