Which continents? I wouldn't have asked had you used a singular term.

I'm puzzled by the downvote... There is plenty of granularity within every country, let alone every continent. But even allowing some rough generalizations, [1] shows that Africa is the only firm candidate for such an assertion.

He's exaggerating. Even in Africa most countries have a life expectancy over 30 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Life_Expectancy_2011_Estim...), at least according to the CIA World Factbook. Even then in most African countries life expectancy averages are cut short because the high number of HIV infections.

OP had a good point though, not everyone in the world uses Google, and not even all of the 2 billion internet users use Google.

Antarctica is the obvious one.. I'd guess Africa is the other.

If anything Africa is the closest to being obvious. Antartica doesn't qualify, as it has no permanent population [1]. Even if it did, its non-permanent population is so many orders of magnitude behind the rest [2] that its inclusion in the original term 'continents' would be clearly misleading.
