Ah, but they aren't subisdizing internet. I've checked for references of government intrvention in all of these high-speed eastern European countries, and the opposite is true - its all been privatized since the late 90's.

Also, you falsely assume that every country in latin America is growing at a very significant pace. You'd be correct if you were talking about Chile which has a smaller population growing development. Its broadband speed is growing at a frantic rate (its about 7.4 mb/s)...So my argument would work down there too.

It seems that the countries that are growing fast for internet speeds are small  and have high development, as opposed to massive government interventions.

And finally, I'll take private internet over government subisidized internet that can control and decide where, when and what to share.

If you don't like bellsouth, then I suggest switching. You know, there may be other providers in your area :-p

I actually need to double check that since I am not too sure that they are entirely  without any subsidies. Also, when was the last time the govrnment stopped you form using the interstate? I would love to hear it since you seem to think they are being very restrictive of what they own, yet I have not had a single problem using an interstate

Actually I can only choose between Bellsotuh comcast Comcast, and both are pretty bad at this internet business.
