Perhaps the only two internet evils the community has escaped, so far, are the fake news epidemic and cyberfraud.
Nevertheless, satellite internet, which is spreading like wildfire throughout the Amazon, may still represent the final straw for the basin’s myriad indigenous cultures, besieged since the rubber boom kicked off in the 19th Century.
That process of cultural loss has now been accelerated to warp speed by the internet, and the Hispanophone and Lusophone, hyperactive, distorted view of the world it gives youngsters in remote communities like Palotoa-Teparo.
That includes the two children of Pablo Chagueva. A living link to a bygone age before Europeans first arrived in the New World, he speaks only Matsigenka, has no idea of his age and has no national identity card, meaning his existence has yet to even be registered by the Peruvian state.
Without speaking Castilian, never mind reading and writing it, or any means to buy a mobile phone, the internet remains as mysterious and inaccessible to him as the Mariana Trench. But now his two children, aged eight and 14, are in the village school and starting to venture online for the first time.
The community now stands on the brink of a second information revolution, one which could see its connectivity ramp up, literally, by orders of magnitude.
