Akamai's latest State of the Internet report: "The world grows as the U.S. falls behind"

Akamai's latest State of the Internet report:  "The world grows as the U.S. falls behind": "[T]he increased sophistication of global internet networks has lead to the U.S. becoming outmoded in the top tiers of connectivity. While the U.S. remains eighth in average connection speeds, it no longer registers in the top 10 for peak connection speeds (which it has been left out of all year) and now rests at 10th in overall high broadband speeds. America is lodged in a flat period for broadband growth while smaller, developing countries reach better connectivity. It's high time to get gigabit networks deployed, or risk being left in the dust."
