It's strange to me that these researchers don't look at countries that have had 1Gb/s residential Internet connectivity for years. Why not investigate how Internet usage changed in Slovenia, or S Korea, or some other more bandwidth advanced country than the USA?
- bjt 11y agoA before/after in a whole country is not as clean an experiment as the randomized trial done in this study. With the whole country, there could be a whole bunch of other variables changing in the before and after time frames. (Like maybe some new service comes online that results in people using a lot more bandwidth.) The design of this study allows the researcher to hold those things constant.
