France had Minitel and now, for less than 50, you have up/down 8Gbps with TV etc. 5G is half that price. Switzerland might be even cheaper with Salt for the fiber, 5G, can be pretty cheap here too, or bloody expensive ( Swisscom ) US just has many excuses that's it. | ||

Major campaigns to install telephone lines took place in the run-up to and during the First World War. This enabled civilians and conscripts who were not trained in the use of radio to communicate with headquarters. There were literally regiments drawing up lines as the troops advanced. | ||
