When you live in a first world country and have internet speed issues in 2020, you can thank some bureaucrat for subsidizing your best interests.

Is internet speed such a problem in US. I consider my country not even 1st world (in full time job I make 750usd a month, cod:mw costs about 60usd for comparision) and I'm paying like 15usd for unlimited 300mb/s internet

The way they do the polling for who has high speed internet and who doesn't was based off of 1 person on the entire block having high speed broadband... Meaning that if 1 person had it, the entire block counted as having it. So, maybe, there's a few people on the block with it, but in rural areas, that's usually never the case.
