How old are you? You might be under-estimating how lucky you were to even have access to a personal computer at home at all. See the chart on page 2 here: https://www.census.gov/prod/2013pubs/p20-569.pdf
For example, when I first started using computers as a kid, it was at a time when less than one in eight households had computers. That's pretty privileged.

It's not a spectrum along a single axis. You can be privileged in some areas and not in others.
