It's also worth noting that poor quality internet connections can be depressingly common in countries other than the US too. For example, here in the UK, there are a surprising number of areas with no fibre internet available even in large cities. I remember seeing a fair few tech companies getting lumbered with mediocre broadband connections in central London for example. So if your market is a global one, there's a chance even a fortune 500 company could struggle to load your product in their HQ because of their terrible internet connection. And I suspect it's probably even worse in some South American/African/Asian countries in the developing world...
