I disagree. The North Korea comparison is extremely useful, seeing as Cuba and North Korea are among the third world nations with the least widespread public Internet connectivity over the last 20 years. They&#x27;re also both ruled by Communist dictatorships and have been for many decades. They both have extraordinarily low median incomes, among the lowest on earth in fact. Cuba is better off than North Korea, that&#x27;s well understood.<p>Cuba should be equated to North Korea, for decades they&#x27;ve been in the same tier of economic development and the same tier of Internet access. The parent using Cuba as a reference makes perfect sense. What other nation would one compare Cuba to exactly? Where else do people earn $20 per month, have extremely limited access to the Internet, no freedom of speech or press, and live under a Communist dictatorship?
