Relatively easy communication with anyone on the planet is an ideal goal which may not be realized in your lifetime. The reality is that internet freedoms are being quickly eroded by governments and rich internet providers or corporations. What we sorely need is standardized laws or a bill of rights for internet use so that even the poorest among us have an opportunity to safely roam the web and interact rather freely with the humans in it and the wealth of knowledge or information which exists in it.
Here is a Ted link which identifies internet problems and how we may potentially solve them for the benefit of almost everyone and not just the few and wealthy and politically powerful.

For starters here are a few rights which I would recommend:
A right to freely access scientific papers more than a year old.
A right to freely access medical research and clinical trials more than a year old.
A right to freely access bank IRS statements more than a year old.
A right to freely access IRS statements of corporations with a net worth of 10 billion dollars+ and which are more than a year old.
A right to freely access the IRS records of politicians and their relatives which are more than a year old.
Follow the money and there is a possibility of weeding out corruption in society and keeping it to a minimum!!!!!! Good knowledge is also power so open source information in science, medicine, and agriculture or food is vital to a healthy smart society.
