The mayor of San Francisco has proclaimed that WiFi is a "right." Here are his exact words, from a recent Yahoo! article.
This is a civil rights issue as much as anything else...It is to me a fundamental right to have access universally to information.
WiFi is a lot of things, but I'm pretty sure that it is not a civil right, anymore than libraries or roads are a civil right. Libraries provide information, but I don't think we have a "right" to them. Television and radio provide information, but I don't recall a debate in the 1920s about "radio rights" or in the 1950s about "TV rights."
People like Rosa Parks, who really did have something to say about civil rights, are diminished by this kind of hyperbole.
