More about the book

Focusing on Aboriginal households in remote central Australia, the book explores the complexities of internet access and adoption in communities that opt out of digital connectivity despite available infrastructure. It challenges conventional views of the digital divide, arguing that digital exclusion reflects deeper social dynamics rather than mere lack of access. By examining the implications of internet use, the authors raise critical questions about equality and the potential role of connectivity in addressing the challenges of remote living.
