As of July 1 2010, every one in Finland gets a right BY LAW to have high speed broadband of 1 Mbps. Finland is the first country to make it a legal right that every one of her citizen will have a minimum of 1 Mbps.
"Up to 96 per cent of the population is already online and only about 4,000 homes will need to be connected to comply with the law."
