Americans pay some of the highest prices for wireless data in the world, and it's going to get worse

Am from Canada. Lived in Finland for two years. Truly unlimited data on smartphone and SIM-based 4G to Wifi home network bridge was absolutely glorious. Both of those combined costs less than one mediocre smartphone plan in Western Canada.

Near the end of my stay the EU enacted roam-like-home everywhere so your Finnish mobile plan just worked in any EU country. Speeds were also better than what I currently get at home with cable-based ISP.

Post-added tax on retail goods is also caveman hooey. I can’t wait for the future to catch up with us here in North America.
