    That's romanticising the situation. The Cuban LANs don't span across cities and the speeds are quite bad (~2 MB/s on a good day) because of overcrowded wireless links.

    They do have the 'paquete semanal', which is a hard drive that's distributed weekly and contains terabytes of fresh pirates material. That is much much faster and the way most Cubans get software and media.

      I was thinking about Iraq too, there's apparently something similar there that's way faster than the metered 2G link a lot of people rely on.
