Dear Diary: Internet in my Country is So Expensive and Slow a Product of Monopoly

I had been using a VPN to go online ever since I had discovered the Internet. At first there were fee VPN providers that I was using but the caveat is that you have to really be updated about how to connect and sometimes you have to join their chat or forum group for a while so that you can e given a free connection privilege. I do not have a time for those so I just buy my premium service for this particular type of VPN so that I can not have much of a problem connecting to the precious Internet.

But lately it has been hard because my provider is just getting a way to throttle my connection so I have just switched into their 3G system and in that way my VPN seems to work now. That is why I was able to type and post this article of mine. So now I am just connected but with a very slow Internet. I do not like this of course because it is slow. I am also afraid that my SIM card could get completely blocked if I would exceed the data usage.

This is the problem with an oligarch type of Internet business here in my country where there are only two major networks that controls the Internet service. They are monopolizing in a way the service so the people are now getting the burden of a very bad service with their very expensive charges which in my opinion is not justified because it really is expensive and in fact one of the most expensive in our region.

I think the government will be making a way for the people here to get a fast and affordable Internet in the near future. The plan I think is the laying of some underground cables that would connect this country directly outside and I think that the government will be the one also that will provide it for the people. I do not know the details but surely the Internet problem could get a resolution so that me and my fellow countrymen could finally enjoy a good Internet connection in the future.
