Here in Ukraine we got 1000 mbit even in small villages via optic. For 7.5$/month. For the last 10 years at least. Before that the standard was 100 mbit ethernet. 20 years ago the standard was 30 mbit via coaxial tv cable.

Here in the UK, I can get 1GB up/down for about £30 ($38, or ₴1,434.60).

Must be nice.

from Ukraine too, can confirm.
still using 100mbps because it's dirt cheap and I don't really need more yet.
