#1  I heard this stuff before on a tech telecast. The promoter waxed about how South Korea had a faster net as well. Skip the fact that South Korea was the size of Kansas with a quarter of its population in one geographical location, Seoul. He also ignored that South Korea was not divided into 50 separate mini-countries each with their own public utility commissions to work through in delivering the service. To put some serious broadband internet through most of the fly country will require a federal effort like the Rural Electrification Act of the '30s.
