Funny, how in the title refers to the Internet globally when the article is
specific about the USA.

I live in europe and we have at home 100Mbps . Mid sized city of 500k
people. Some ISPs even spread WiFi across town so that subscribers can have
internet access outside their homes.

Though it's nice to have why would one *need* 100 Mbps at home? I understand the necessity of internet access and agree everyone has a right to it. But that necessity can be perfectly fulfilled with a stable internet connection of a reasonable speed (say low to mid range DSL speed tops).

I don't regard simultaneously streaming 6 channels of TV and downloading the latest movie torrent in 2 minutes as a basic necessity, let alone essential.
