Denial of Information

Tags: , , , , , , , ,

As the momentous occasion of transcribing Human genome has become history, the spin offs have been amazing. For after years, the discreet molecular mechanisms that underlie much of the process of Cancers, is slowly being unravelled. The worst part is that I am feeling left out of this exciting discovery.

It usually takes in heavy downloads to understand whatever is being talked about. gave me a rare oppurtunity to log on to the infospace and understand. Hopefully apply the same. Yet the frigging sitting up decide to control the access to information. They feel that I would use it for or leech on their networks.

Broadband isnt really great and as far as connectivity is concerned, it sucks. Yet, the whole point is that I am happy that it is there in the first case. I shudder to think of my peers and those unfortunate people who don’t have an access to computer itself. Or the ways and means to access the knowledge resources is woefully inadequate.

The whole point here is that it’s extremely frustrating to be restricted. Heavy data wouldn’t load up on a dial up. It isnt me as a health professional who is constrained. I have read accounts of people who wish to work from home. Or log on to the exploding oppurtunity of E commerce. Or perhaps participate in online learning courses. All for knowledge’s sake. Yet, the mandarins are gloating about the way they have us all at their mercy.

If anyone from the or the is reading this- kindly note that it isnt the or the gaming services we need at present. Just give us decent connectivity. As the largest service provider and a public undertaking, it is your responsibilty and our right to demand equitable services.

True, I can now understand why brain drain occurs. And we are left with a HUGE swathe of unworthy idiots…ones who claim that we need Pentium 4′s to run broadband!
