Earlier today Robin Wauters posted a very interesting item on TechCrunch.
Finland is the first country in the world to mandate a 1 megabit connection as of July 2010, and a whopping 100 Mb connection by 2015. That is quite impressive, and a giant step in the right direction.
Society is going to move more and more into an online world, and if people are left out, we will have to face a society where you have those that are online, and those that fall back. Going forward a broadband connection should be available to everybody, either at reasonable prices, or maybe even free?
Now all that we need is affordable computers for all. Who will be building those? And what would change in the world if all countries followed Finland’s example?
