This is such bad faith.

Your link talks about a "fun experiment" in an "area underprovisioned with bandwidth", where they are faster to deliver a DVD 10km away than uploading it.

I can't even begin to explain how this is nothing more than a fun anecdote that has absolutely nothing to do with innovation in Europe.

> CD is that shiny piece of plastic that you can put your data, if you youngsters do not know what it is

They are sending 4.5GB on a DVD. DVD is that thing that looks like a CD on the outside, but can hold more data. Since you don't seem to know the difference.



math comes to about 5 megabits upload. not great, but i could live with that.
