Global impact:
- If a country is lacking in financial power and has a weak economy, this will impact the digital divide and make it worse, for their own country and around the world. Countries which are lacking in financial power will not have the right amount of funding to acquire the latest technology for the people in the country. This will make the gap in the digital divide to widen up even further, as there are more births in these sort of countries compared to countries who are up the hierarchy of financial power meaning if nothing is done to stop the gap from widening, in the future there will be less overall people from the population who have access to latest technology compared to those who don't. However there are many countries in which have the financial power to acquire the latest technology but are in so much debt that they can't do anything about and end up have to,paying it back, meaning that they will have cut unnecessary cost. This doesn't exactly mean that acquiring the latest technology is necessary but it is something that a country can compromise on.
- Businesses which are based in the more developed countries have a higher chance to reaching international global markets compared to the businesses in the less developed countries. This because most of the times these businesses are acquired by the larger and more developed businesses, disabling the chances of the country to make a much larger profit from it by selling its goods. Also they are affected by how they can advertise their business to people in their countries because they going to be limited, not everyone may have television or have connection to the Internet to be able to browse through transactional websites.
