Description[?]:
| Many independent sources critizise government statement on ISPs. They call for more free internet services, as long as there have been signs of government effects on it. Additionally, the price of the internet connection is way too high for poor people, who are not able to access the internet due to nonexisting competition. Even those who can afford it has it pretty slow and now even some companies are complaining, that their internet connection causes them to be late on the stock market. |
