Which of the following situations is most likely to cause issues arising from the digital divide? a. A state makes voter registration forms available only by visiting a government website

d. A smartphone attempts to communicate over the Internet with another type of device, like a tablet or laptop

Option A is the correct answer

Digital divide is simply referred to as the gap between those people that benefit from the modern digital age and those people who don't benefit from it. In simple terms, the gap between regions, countries, cities or people who don't have access and those who have access to the digital space like the internet and ICT are as a result of wrong policies, economics or laws.

Let's now look at each of the options;

Option A; This statement will cause a digital divide because by only visiting a government website, not everyone will be able to do so as some people are not yet internet savvy especially older people. As a result this would lead to a digital divide between the internet savvy people and those who are not.Option B; This will not lead to digital divide because the digital divide has to be in line with either usage divide, access divide or quality of use divide. The situation in this option does not fall into any of the categories of the digital divide. Thus, it does not lead to a digital divide.Option C; Like option B above, this statement does not fall into either usage divide, access divide or quality of use divide.
