On: Americans don’t need fast home Internet service, FCC suggests

[ianhowson]

The irony is that in Australia, mobile broadband is superior to wired in most areas.

Dear USA: please do not use this as evidence for mobile broadband's inherent superiority.

I recently moved to Germany and am on what is considered a slow DSL link: 32Mbps down, 8Mbps up. It's wonderful and life changing compared with the 4/1Mbps Telstra DSL I used to have.

The situation in Germany isn't perfect though. If you live in a more rural area it is not unlikely that there is no DSL available at all.
