Dude... try rural Illinois. The only internet I can get faster than 3mbps is cellular hotspot, and that's supposed to be 5G but is usually actually 4G out here. That's it. I can get dial-up, DSL, cable that is somehow slower than DSL and constantly disconnects, or hotspot from AT&T.
America is far from the best example of decent internet access if you live more than a few miles from a major urban hub. In fact, in rural areas, your options are not only stupidly limited, but also criminally expensive. For land-based internet at 3mbps where I live costs $6 more per month than my sister-in-law's GB Fiber 20 miles away, and has data caps to boot. It's insane.
Sometimes I wonder if Galaxy Quest didn't understand Trek better than some actual Trek shows?
