Current infrastructures could not hold all of that fail.

Why the fuck would I do that

Genocide. No people, no problem.

The "easiest" (in terms of rapid deployment and cost) would be extended range cell towers with microwave backhauls between each other, and routing done at each base station.

It would be hella slow compared to terrestrial wire systems, but you would have "internet" connectivity for a fraction of the cost.

You have to tackle three fronts:

Devices
Connection
Content

Devices are getting ever lower prices, but large parts of mankind are still unable to afford one. I have been trying to think what an ultra affordable computer would look like, I guess Rpi like with a 10 inch screen. But we need to reach the 20 dollar computer point.

Connections are improving, but they still offer very low speeds, which leads us to the third point:

Content needs to be super low bandwith. Compression can help, but we need low bandwith websites.

Dial-up modems. I'm assuming a lot of third world countries at least have telephone lines.
>>
Google is doing this by mass producing cheap smartphones for Africans.

Everyone will be on the botnet.
>>
My country went around it by having the national telecom have free internet, but like 2gb a month. Devices are still way too expensive, cheapest new PC would be around 200uss.
>>
Seize the means of production

Kill anyone who doesn't already have access to the internet

Now everyone has access to the internet

More people means more garbage on the internet. I have zero problem with letting only first world and developing 2nd world nations like russia have internet access. No third world nations like africa or brazil.

Kill all poor people and 3rd worlders

Help the poor but get rid of the third worlders, problem solved.

$30 chink phones and some LTE towers.
