Mark Zuckerberg calls for universal internet access to combat poverty
- Calling for efforts to ensure internet access for everyone globally by 2020, Mr Zuckerberg said internet connections are a dynamic tool for sharing knowledge, creating opportunities, lifting communities out of poverty and promoting peace.
- The 193 UN member nations on Friday formally adopted a sweeping set of17 Sustainable Development Goals, or SDGs, that aim to end poverty and combat inequality and climate change over the next 15 years and call for shared peace and prosperity.
I believe that this is a great move for everyone. No one shouldn't have access to the internet it's an amazing tool that has changed the way we communicate with each other around the world and at least trying to get internet access around the world for free by 2020 shows how people still care about the little man.
Netflix knows which episodes get you hooked to a
series
- The streaming service Netflix has analysed viewer data from 16 countries to find out at what point in several hit programmes someone is 70% likely to finish at least the first series of a show.
- There are no shows where the pilot episode is all it takes. Political drama House of Cards wins people over after three, superhero show Daredevil takes five, while the long-running sitcom How I Met Your Mother needs eight episodes to shore up its audience.
Netflix provides the freedom that a lot of people don't normally have in their day to day lifes. Before everything was must see TV and if you missed a show you would never see it again and you would always be behind. Now Netflix allows people to watch the best shows whenever they want and they have a ton of brilliant content like Orange is the new Black, House of Cards and Breaking Bad. I think part of this is because TV productions are starting to realise that putting your TV show on the internet is way better in comparison.
