Sweden.10Gbps for 30$ / month. It's kind of a long-running launch campaign, but still. https://www.bahnhof.se/villafiber/
Whats the typical bandwidth quota? Surely they wont let u saturate a 10gig pipe ..
I've got 400Mbs/35Mbps with no cap (literally unlimited) which would cap out at a round 4TB a day if I ever had a reason and could saturate it.

10Gbps domestically is insane though, that's pushing 100TB a day!.

Most of EU plans I have experience with are not capped; but 10gbps seems insanely high.
Belgium, 39€ for internet + digital TV + phone line 50 Mbps, but it is enough)

We are more on the expensive of Europe. My subscription is pretty cheap though.

200Mbps in the entire country would be around 55€ ( internet only)

Europe has 4 of top 5 of the fastest broadband countries in the works.

Romania (#5 in speed), goes as low as 7€/month.

So in Romania it's basically the same percentage of income as in the US.
Where does that reference "stop". Every utility still has a base cost.

Also, I'm pretty sure that the richest in Romania has a much higher income than the poorest in America. But they still pay the same price.

Ps. What if you reference it with social health care in Romania vs US. Not everybody works, you know.
