&gt; Which is the most &quot;advanced&quot; country in your opinion in terms of e-government?<p>1) One consideration is scale: Estonia&#x27;s population is around the size of a city, 1.3 million, about equivalent to SF and Oakland combined. It&#x27;s land area is around 17,500 sq miles; a U.S. state of that size would be the 42nd largest, between West Virginia and Maryland.<p>That doesn&#x27;t diminish the services for thier citizens; to the extent that they enhance government through tech, that&#x27;s great. But if you are comparing countries, it&#x27;s much different to organize and service 1.3 than 300 million. In fact, if I were running a small nation (something I know nothing about), I might use that relative nimbleness as a competitive advantage.<p>2) As a guess, Singapore?<p>3) Does e-government include the governmental service of spying on citizens?
