Internet access should (and I think, likely will) be legislated as a right in many countries in the semi-near future.
Already, it's difficult/impossible to find/apply for a job without internet access. Cutting off someone's internet access may be a breach of freedom of expression/free speech in some countries. When all phones are VOIP phones, the internet will be a life or death matter for 911/111/999 calls. Not to mention stuff you have to buy, children's homework, your job may likely be a telecommute position (in which case, revocation of internet access = hungry kids), etc.
They don't revoke your license and right to wear coats when you're caught shoplifting, even though the car is how you got to the store, and you hid the item in your coat. It's because those items are necessary and useful for other purposes. And because there is no lobby to get that legislated.
