Digital footprint will become a problem when we have something on the internet we don’t want there, such as a drunken/inappropriate photo. This could negatively affect our chances of getting into a university or a job. 

Although, digital footprint is useful for connecting with old friends, to have a good online reputation and help users contact content creators, therefore it is next to impossible to remove yourself from the digital world as many of us use devices every day that a transmitting data.

According to Kula (2017) a digital divide is a division of the population in such a way that some are able to fully take advantage of opportunities in a digital economy, while others can’t.

A digital divide is any uneven distribution in the access to, use of, or impact of information and communication technologies between any numbers of distinct groups. These groups may be defined based on social, geographical, or geopolitical criteria, or otherwise.

In the townships there are more people who need free resources which prevents them from receiving free fibres and internet cafes. The schools in Soweto are also more disadvantaged than because of the number of students they have, therefore they get limited access to digitals.

This issue can be solved by providing free Wi-Fi in schools and communities in the township so that the people from the suburbs receive the same technology. Laptops can provided by governments in public schools and libraries for the community to use for free.
