I've checked the sources, and it seems obvious to me that they're very far from reliable, but apparently not to the people who made it. It's about as useful as a broken shoelace.

I'm in Brazil and we have a good internet already. What we want is to be in this ranking!!! It's jealousy….. A song would be cool, though. Bono could make it for us. The chorus could say something like: We are so poor We are the last Hey, Michael moore We want it fast But, Jackie, it’s not necessary. I’m in Brazil and we have a good internet already.

What bothered me at the point that makes me bother you guys too is that, to this ranking, as the title says, the world is summed up to these top20 countries. It's not "around the world". Those are basically some places of the north hemisphere. But, please, don't worry. This nice blog isn’t the place to this old fashioned and annoying kind of complaint. I shouldn't write that comment.
