This study aims to assess the impact of internet access on the lives of the people of Karang Taba Village, Lamandau Sub-district, Lamandau Regency, Central Kalimantan. The internet is increasingly important in everyday life, especially in rural areas that were previously less accessible to information technology. With the development of communication infrastructure, remote villages are beginning to enjoy better access to information. This research uses an analytical descriptive method with a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews and field observations. The research subjects were purposively selected with snowball sampling technique to ensure relevant and in-depth data. The results show that internet access provides significant benefits in improving public services, economic development, and education, but there are negative impacts such as addiction and the spread of negative content. This research suggests improving internet infrastructure and socialising healthy internet use to maximise the benefits of technology for rural communities. In conclusion, the internet has an important role in village development and empowerment if utilised wisely.
