In Russia there is a movement to digitise both the economy and state governance.

As such, inability to access the net adequately to receive those services (especially state services) is viewed as "digital inequality" and the state has a program to combat that. As such the state, for example, sponsors or outright builds comunication lines for various small/remote settlements, for example in this (recent) report here (google translates digital inequality as digital divide):

on some of the work Russian Government does in this direction.

Do you think that such inequality exists and/or matters? How does it work in your countries?

p.s. simmilar policy in Finland:
