Chicken or Internet

So, my husband found the following stat regarding internet use in the EU:

Out of the people in the European Union who do not have Internet in their homes, 50% quoted the cause "remains the lack of interest in Internet".

This caused quite an interesting discussion between my husband and I. I believe that since the EU is geographically so close that many Europeans do not feel the need to have access to information in their homes (unlike Americans who almost need it since we are so isolated from each other both physically and culturally). He has different opinions.

Regardless, I'm interested in what you think. Post a comment.
