> Frightening... but why?

I asked myself the same question when I saw a documentary about analphabets. They quoted a number of about 8 million total and functional analphabets for Germany (among 80 million population), which is absolutely staggering.

To witness, people who cannot use a computer are often called "digital analphabets" or similar.
