  That's a really interesting site. I happen to be reading this in Mauritius, and the "closest" data center (using the classical Ping metric) is London; I guess that's the old trade routes in action.

  In Helsinki, I'm seeing (on Telia 4G) the Finland region quickest at 50ms and the rest >60ms. Similarily on DNA cable, the Finland region is quickest at 42ms and the rest >55ms. Perhaps they peer with (some of) the ISPs but not (yet) with other DCs?
