Broadband to become a human right in Finland

From the middle of next year Finland will become the first country in the world to incorporate access to broadband into its legislation as a basic human right.

From July next year, every person in Finland will have the right to have access to 1MG broadband connection. The Finnish government is already planning to make access to 100MG broadband a legal requirement by the end of 2015.
