I suggest that the existing Right to Internet access article should be merged into this article. There is considerable overlap between the two articles already and I don't see the need to maintain both. The "Right to Internet access" article would become a #REDIRECT to the "Digital rights" article. What do others think? - Jeff Ogden (W163) ( talk) 13:49, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
The following two comments were copied from Talk:Right to Internet access:
This merger proposal has failed to gain much support or opposition. Lets withdraw the proposal for now and revisit the issue sometime in the future. -- Jeff Ogden (W163) ( talk) 13:09, 30 June 2012 (UTC)
+3% = MOST in this bit: Most Internet users (53%) felt that "the internet should never be regulated by any level of government anywhere".
-2% = Evenly split in this bit: Opinion was evenly split between Internet users who felt that “the internet is a safe place to express my opinions” (48%) and those who disagreed (49%).
Just take out the vague "most" bit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.91.120.57 ( talk) 17:59, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Reorganized to make the article easier to skim, but plan to continue making it more concise and readable by summarizing quotes and synthesizing main points of various conferences.
Also did some copyediting on a paragraph below (which I removed from the article) in case someone feels strongly it should be put back in (I couldn't find the source):
According to an editorial in the journal La Civiltà Cattolica the Internet is a global public good that should be accessible to all and respectful of the rights of others. With repressive regimes restricting access to information and communications, democratic governments should work to guarantee access to the Internet and adopt general principles to ensure network use respects universal human rights. For example, the author advocates that the only online material to be censored should be child pornography and cyberterrorism and advocates a "Charter of Human Rights for the Internet." citation needed Superb Owl ( talk) 07:28, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
