It becomes more and more difficult to meet your vital needs when you don’t have an internet connection. However, this tool is becoming increasingly difficult to access. Because the depreciation of the Turkish Lira, even if our income, especially the minimum wage, increases, we make monthly, regular expenses such as the Internet. Because our needs are getting more and more expensive why is this happening.
On the other hand, another problem we are experiencing in Turkey is the development of internet infrastructure with very slow speeds compared to the rest of the world. We can still establish ADSL and VDSL connections in most metropolitan areas of our country, even in their remote districts. In fact, we have towns and cities where this opportunity does not reach, and even if it does, it does not work decisively. As a result, the average internet speed in our country is falling. So, what level is our country compared to other countries?
