“…Hence, access to internet is very limited for those that form part of the category of socially excluded individuals.The lack of developed or developing infrastructure in rural areas also impact on the level of access to internet, as most people have to rely on public libraries and paid internet cafes to access the internet and are limited in amount of time that they actually have access to this. However, countries, regions or cultures having or using higher levels of technology, education, basic services, food, expectation of life and so on are very different from countries, regions or cultures developed otherwise; mostly indicated by higher levels of poverty, less education, limited basic services and expectation in life or specific diseases (Arnold, 2018). Thus, it can be said that the major challenge that South Africa faces with regard to social exclusion and online platforms can be addressed by wider access to internet.…”
