01
Artifact Overview
The late arrival of the Internet to Cuba is complicated, fueled by political and technological issues. In July of 2015, accessibility somewhat improved with the creation of 35 public Wi-Fi spots. Previous use relied upon slow satellite and dial-up connections. Now citizens can purchase one of these cards, allowing an hour of improved Internet access with a laptop or smartphone.
