While there are few barriers to producing and publishing content and material to the Indymedia website, accessibility is still an issue as it is a predominantly Internet-based operation. While the digital divide between those who have access to technology such as the Internet is diminishing in the U.S., it remains a concern at the global level. In order to fully participate in civic activities and discussion, all citizens of the world must have access to central information. While mainstream media outlets are increasingly commodifying information published on their websites, access to information on Indymedia— including video and streaming audio and radio—is free. However, those who are most affected by questionable international policies and social and political injustices often do not have Internet access.
