Germans have a superiority complex over lesser developed countries like Eastern Europe that they use to justify how their corruption is acceptable, and how having much slower and much more expensive internet than developing countries is also acceptable. They're victims of their own arrogance and lack of self criticism.
They aren't alone though. I think the whole DE, NL, DK, SE, NO has the same ideas.
