Internet - A Legal Right?

I just heard on the news that Finland has declared that Internet Broadband access is a legal right for all of it's citizens. I am not really sure if I agree with this. I guess if you are a small country like Finland and your citizens enjoy a high standard of living then adding Internet access to those rights is nothing. It just seems wrong to add Internet to basic rights when so much of the world do not/can not even afford food, shelter, clothing, etc. Maybe Finland should give a little more money to help these poor people around the world instead of focusing on making luxury items (such as Internet access) a basic right.
