There are much better options to provide people with educational, informative and entertaining content.
Well funded public broadcasters like Australia ABC provide news and entertainment content free. (both text and video)
Well funded public libraries can provide a wide range of alternate content.

While I love libraries and public broadcasting, I learned to code as a poor kid through library books, they are not the full solution and they never provided free, instant, and any time international communication for people.
