I do not have internet access in my flat. I go to my library and there I download stuff from Netflix. No longer. After recent changes, downloads are no longer possible on the Windows app. More digital exclusion.
How sad. So I have closed my account.
What about alternatives such as Disney orAmazon Prime?

I'm not sure if not having internet can be called digital exclusion but what do I know?

Simple solution: download the content on your smartphone and then cast to your computer using Bluetooth or a wired solution.

Is there something stopping you getting internet access in your flat?

This is your decission.
Just like some people decide not to wear a shirt or shoes. But then please do not point the finger at the local restaurants and blame them for "food exclusion".

No internet and no smart phone. You are choosing to be digitally excluded, not a victim.

No smartphone and no internet is digital self-segregation, not exclusion. You screwed this pooch all by yourself.

The topic "German technology themes/Internet" is there to discuss problems with the internet.
It is not there to discuss problems that you have because you are without Internet on purpose.
