China has a bigger landmass than the US and China’s internet is insanely fast. Just like the 5GA. The US is like dialup compared to China.
Especially now only Netgear is allowed in the US compared to the innovate technology from the likes of Huawei.
This is apparently a different China than the one I’ve worked in for the last decade.
You may have a theoretically fast connection - but even then it’s not particularly cheap (I pay less in Romania and Thailand for FTTH,) and the actual qualify of Internet bandwidth is beyond atrocious for any non domestic traffic (i.e. anything crossing the great firewall.)
Which is not to be negative about China, it’s got a hell of a lot going for it - I’d live in China before I’d live anywhere in the US - but great Internet is not one of those things.
Maybe you live in a 4rd level city, but here in Shanghai, the speed is fenomal. I download a 4k atmos movie in mere seconds.
And outside because most of the city is covered by 5GA, it’s crazy fast. Whenever I go back to Europe, I struggle with both the fixed line speed and whatever they claim is 5G.
New Tier 1 actually; Shanghai is very much China for amateurs, of course - but that’s irrelevant; you might not realise this but the vast majority of Chinese also don’t live in Shanghai.
Switzerland is fucking tiny.
That’s why.
No that isn’t why.
There is no correlation between population density and broadband speed in the west.
Not relevant to the point but that is a terribly color coded graph, there are multiple indistinguishable pairs
Edit: worse than that, how do you tell New Zealand, Germany, and the Netherlands apart? Norway, Spain, Iceland?
Netherlands has highest population density and New Zealand the lowest of those three.
I’ll talk to my researcher.
Tbh looking at it now it’s not quite as bad as it initially looked, iirc I had like just woken up or smthn lol
But still
Well, Austria is right next to it. It’s tiny, too. So why is it not as good?
I love how that’s always the cop out for any advancement.
With many mountains and streets, scattered settlements.

No, read the article
By that logic Tuvalu’s internet must be amazing.
That’s absolutely logic, certainly.
By which logic do you mean? My guess. You don’t know.
Oh, that’s where you go dark.
