i don't know if i'd call it an extreme luxury, it's very difficult to be a productive member of society these days without the internet. Without the internet you can't send emails to people, you can't apply for jobs online, you can't fill out the plethora of e-forms for this that and the other that are instead of paper forms, school homework is pretty difficult especially when it's the kind that you do on a website itself, the list goes on. The internet is only growing as an integral part of our society.
