Access to the Internet as a Right?

Should access to the Internet be a universal right?

Life gets very difficult without Internet access. Corporations and governments want you to interact with them online. Banking and finance would be difficult and more costly without Internet connectivity. Accessing government services without Internet access becomes more time-consuming. Services from corporations would be unbearable without access to the Internet. Communications and payments would cost you more without access. You would not be able to fully participate in the digital economy without access. 

Is it time to make Internet access a universal human right?
