        @WSJ To be fair, the US has the largest area to cover. Easier in smaller countries.

        @WSJ Considering all those countries combined have an area less than Texas, the US does very well.

        @WSJ @s_m_bell The concentration of ISPs is going to make US lag more. The flip of that is the UK has comp but isn't better off for speeds.
