What a joke!
My Country if full of idiot Government and ISP's who say our internet is good, what can you do when everything you worked towards and invested in for many years is torn down, used up and spat out.

You all are very lucky that you people even get that. In my country, most of the people still use wired broadband connection with a paltry speed, usually around 256-512kbps. Yes you read that right. Although, big companies have started improving those speeds, through those 3g USB dongles, but the price cap and usage limit varies from company to company. The maximum speed that I have seen is 21 Mbps. They are expensive, which the normal indian cannot afford. In big cities, fibre optics have started, and these bring a bright future, I beleive. My current plan is for 15GB@ 10Mbps, that costs me around 1000 Rs which is much better prospective, than what other companies are offering me. The more better plans have greater speeds, ranging from 10Mbps-100Mbps, but again, they become a little expensive. You see, In india, paying a 1000 Rs/ month for internet does seem a bit steep for most of us.
