Internet inclusivity is critical not just for bridging the digital gap, but also for improving people's capacity to use ICT (information and communication technology), empowering e-literacy (electronic literacy), and encouraging Indonesian economic growth. The catalysis generated by the pandemic in the sector of information technology, particularly the internet, has made people's ability to connect to the internet a norm. PSBB (large-scale social restrictions) or lockdowns make activities that need social interaction impossible. With this condition, all parties are compelled to carry out their actions via internet access. Online activities ranging from teaching and learning to office work and even leisure are essential. The government is now implementing digital transformation in all areas of Indonesia. Programs like the ‘sky toll’ and independent internet villages’ have the ability to link the lower middle-class community and stimulate their rapid economic growth. These projects, however, will be more effective if they are supported by particular tactics such as giving digital skills to accomplish productive internet use for the benefit of the Indonesian people
