The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people according to gender. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
By 2020, people in Scandinavian countries like Denmark and Norway had the highest share of daily internet users among men and women. The United Kingdom, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands also had significantly higher shares than other European Countries. Greece, among the European Countries with a low share of daily internet users also had the biggest gap between males and females.
