With DSL prices like these, it's no wonder Borat left Kazakhstan behind1. A new report from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (PDF) paints a grim picture of Internet access in Kazakhstan and shows how difficult life can be for those in poor and authoritarian countries who want to join the worldwide community of Internet users.

Sounds like a good opportunity for a city wide wifi net.
