Teenagers demand constant internet connectivity, with 77 per cent of respondents (56 per cent globally) saying they are likely to feel anxious and alone if separated from the internet -- more than being separated from family.
"The value of internet access is so significant that 75 percent (55 percent globally) strongly believe fast internet access to be a human right," the survey noted.
Seventy per cent respondents stream videos, reflecting streaming over downloads as the preferred platform and only 20 per cent actually download content.
Nearly 95 per cent of respondents expressed the desire to have an internet-connected device embedded in their arm, with 47 per cent seeing it as a replacement for their smartphone.
Meanwhile, 66 per cent believe many jobs will ultimately be replaced by robots while 57 per cent even believe a robot will become their best friend.
