Since FB and Google have benevolently and effectively participated to 'wire the world' ....
Mark Zuckerberg can start his visits to 'potential FB customers' in the 50 US states to the millions of Rural USA dwellers without internet, or who are still stuck on Pay-per-byte' dialup and dog slow 'capped' satellite. Too slow uploads for commerce, vpn, video conference, FB, youtube, interactive online education, banking...
1936 brought
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rural_Utilities_Service, which in 1949 included communication /telephone service (party lines when I was a kid). So YES the means and technology exists, even in the USA.
Yes, rural dwellers create jobs, drive large segment of US economy, ARE the original homebased business, and could be well served with connectivity.
9 trips driving from rural USA to town this week alone, just to get access for email for my PT 'Asia based' gig.
Doing video conferencing and Banking from McD, is not very ez, and disruptive to customers and meeting attendees.
We did a Round-the-world trip in 2016, no where had as crummy internet access and cell coverage as USA.
Many rural centric countries have excellent and affordable nationwide coverage and very innovative services are being created EVERYWHERE (except in USA). There are some very sweet apps / services / businesses to those who have internet access.
BTW: Our home is less than 20 miles to 1m population, fiber runs a few hundred feet in front of our farm, but only accessible to libraries and schools. (60 - 100 miles downstream). No cable tv, no dsl, and no cell towers or microwave stations allowed.
Meanwhile, back to trying to find a 24/7 Internet cafe (becoming fewer, as most 'cities' have coverage
)
