This masks huge differences between the LDCs but reflects that some of them will have largely achieved the universality and affordability criteria by 2020. However, the prospects for widespread use of the Internet by 2020 are poor. At current growth, less than a quarter of the LDC's population will be online (Figure 6.1, bottom right). A key reason is that growth in the ability to use the Internet will not match that of coverage and affordability.
