More details - in the article. Almost 3 billion people around the world are now cut off from the Internet. Also, for example, in North Korea, residents use the intranet - Kwangmyong. The state with the slowest Internet today is Turkmenistan: the average data transfer rate there is 0.5 Mbps. Of the other countries on this list - Afghanistan with 1.41 Mbps, Tajikistan with 1.82 Mbps, Pakistan with 2.82 Mbps. In developed countries, there are also territories with slow Internet. For example, in the USA (California, 3 Mbps), Germany (a village two hours from Berlin, there is no broadband Internet, i.e. traffic goes over a 30-year-old telephone line), Spain, France. Why is everything so slow? This is explained by the peculiarities of the infrastructure and the cost of its construction. That is, it is unprofitable for providers to offer their services where several dozen people will use the Internet: for example, in villages.
