Every Finn Has A Connection Better Than Mine

Well, that isn't true entirely as of yet. Anyway, if you didn't hear about this last October, I'll append your memory.

Back in October, 2009, the Finns passed a law that would make high-speed internet a civil right in Finland. Yes, you read that right: A Right to Internet.

So, the law called for the deployment of these internet connections by July 2010. And, you know, it's July. As per the law, every Finn has a right to a 1Mbps Internet connection. And the folks there are aiming to make a 100Mbps connection available to all by the year 2015. Pretty sweet.
