The finlnad govenment has announced that Broad band connection Internet connection would be provided for free in their country for its 5.3 Million users since Internet has become a part of Human life. The minimum bandwidth to be provided for free is 1Mpbs. Moreover, the Finland government has passed the bill that getting broadband is one of the basic rights of the citizen? Can you get a broadband internet connection for free in Country? I pay arouynd Usd $12 every month for my road band internet connection and it's speed is upto 2mpbs with unlimited downloads in the Night/ early morning time betwwen 2-8A.M.

I sure wish I was a Finnish. I pay for my broadband connection with almost the same price as yours every month. I'm satisfied with my current connection but I would be really glad if Philippines would implement it too but I doubt it

Yes,I was very much surprised after hearing that news. I really wonder how is it feasible for the finland government to provide a free broadband connection upto 1 mpbs for all its citizens and i really wonder about that. Thanks for responding to my discussion and have a great day.

That is a good news. I wish I were in Finland. Internet is expsenive in my country. I pay around $15 every month for unlimited internet. The money I make from working online will not be enough to pay for my internet bill. I make maximum 10 dollars a month. Now, I am looking at other money making websites so that I can make a small pocket money other than paying for the internet.

Wow, that's amazing news. I wish the Indian government will also do the same, however I have little faith in that. I pay around $25 for unlimited but it's not a broadband connection. It's a connection for my laptop & hence the speed is really low. It will be a dream come true if something like a free internet happens. Happy Lotting

hi vinslounge^^;; wow! that's really pretty cool if the government can provide free internet connection then everybody could save up the money paying for it...though i wonder about the electricity bills i really wish we can have that or if not, make the internet plans lower. i pay for $20/month with only 1mbps.
