The government of Finland has announced that 1Mbps broadband access will be a fundamental right, starting from July 2010. The move comes as a precursor to a larger plan to ensure that all the citizens have access to at least 100Mbps connection by 2015.
It is the first country to have done so. The government now considers broadband fundamental enough that it cannot be provided as a commercial profit making venture alone.
