I think the internet has become an essential component of the human condition, and perhaps that would explain the reasoning of the UN in declaring access to the internet a human right. It is given that the internet can be a means to an end, or the end by itself, and for that reason that right of access, must be protected because without it, then you limit those rights and freedoms that can only be enjoyed through the provision of access to the internet as have been mentioned e.g. expression etc.
