Remote tribes are finally getting a little Internet and I can’t see a downside. But this development got me wondering all the same: what else do these folks really need? Besides a steady stream of hardcore pornography faster than the Amazon’s most impressive tributaries. How about a string of retail outlets, a cavalcade of fast-talking celebrity influencers, and one place to get a decent bagel. Who knows, they might even want to add a few nice shirts now that the whole world is watching. How oddly beautiful that only now, after all these years toiling in the wilderness, do remote tribes finally have the pleasure of using an actual remote.
