Hello everyone, I'm Lao Bai, Aunt Zhang next door neighbor. “The Story of Worth†brings you together to review the hot spots of the week and look at the people and things behind the hot spots who have ideas and tension.
Last week, we promised everyone to "mocking about the closure of Cuba" (see the 008 issue). The result was hit today. According to CNBC Financial, on the 27th of April, Google launched the server in Cuba. Google This became the first foreign Internet company to be stationed in Cuba.
To be honest, when White knew the news, he especially wanted to tell Google: Do you know how difficult it is to write!
However, since it was written, it would not be sent out, too sorry for the large F used for codewords.
Besides, Google may not be satisfied with it because Cuba's internet speed is really huh.
The first set of data.
Cuba has the lowest Internet penetration rate in the Western Hemisphere. Most Cubans can only access the Internet through the country's only 240 public Wi-Fi hotspots. The cost of Internet access is US$1.50 per hour (Cuban’s average monthly income is only US$25).
In Cuba, only 5% of people can log on to networks that are not banned. Even if they log on, the speed is slow. The state prohibits all media other than state-owned television channels, and publications are limited to a few newspapers and magazines that have been approved.
Cuba has almost no Internet. Legally, the state prohibits all media other than state-owned television channels, and publications are limited to a few newspapers and magazines that have been approved. Actually, the law can not control the huge underground organization transaction system that combines entertainment and news, distribution and consumption.
In this context, the "Weekly Package" began to grow wildly. This underground media service collects all kinds of digital content every week: from American movies to Western-language electronic newspapers, using a layered trafficking network to manually transport collected contents to all corners of the country. So through the U disk and other means of transmission, a set of news, entertainment underground organization trading system, grew into a large deformed black media empire in the gray area.
This business network is huge and profitable.
Dany stands at the top of this empire.
His office was in a humble house in Havana. The pink walls were bright. The power lights on the two stupid desktops with bare bodies are blinking. Labeled hard drives are everywhere and piled up. The two screens are full of Windows file entries, one of which is written “recording†on the edge of the screen and is displaying Spanish programs.
T-shirts, watches, beach pants pockets, he dull looks like a lazy sophomore. This dress is hard to see as he is the tycoon who ruled Cuba's piracy black market.
Havana has two "wrap weekly" giants: Dany and Ali. Both sides compete to develop high-quality digital content products and provide users with the fastest turnover rate. This is a competitive market in the gray zone in the tightly controlled economic downstream.
"We each have their own duties," Danny said. “Everyone is responsible for collecting some of the content and bring it to me. I'll organize, edit, prepare for distribution, and let the messengers hand over.â€
In the bustling city of Havana, several young people in their early 20s were able to solicit business on the streets. They wear lip-stabs and tattoos, pull black cars, do amateur guides, and send messengers to "weekly courier." The grounding point is mostly behind the mobile phone repair shop, where there is a natural shelter. Guests who are taken to the shop pull out U disk from the body and sit at the computer to copy files. Sometimes the messenger will directly send "goods" to your door. Users only need to sneak in 1-3 dollars to get content.
Danny obtained the documents from the data traffickers, but he also did not know how they got their hands. It may have been illegally digitized through illegal satellite television hidden in a rooftop sink. The YouTube videos on the Internet, pirated movies, and other sources are still unknown.
Some people have speculated that these digital contents were imported by Miami's immigrants on a mobile hard disk to Cuban islands. Movies, TV dramas, music, books, and software are all delivered to users by mobile hard disk or U disk. "We spent a lot of time wasting looking for subtitles and adding subtitles," Danny complained. Danny’s desk has two small speakers with Cuban maps and a teddy bear on it.
The 34-year-old Mr. Zhunier, who is friendly and kind in Havana, is a full-time painter and tattoo artist who had participated in data trafficking and is now a “weekly parcel†loyal user. In his bedroom with frescoes, Zhunier turned on his computer and turned on 934GB of “weekly package†data, which included the hot-film American movies, and Apple’s mobile application software.
The "Weekly Parcel" folder is fine and organized. HD movies come with subtitles and posters. HD picture quality gives people the illusion of watching Netflix (US version of Youku), but in reality it is watching physical transported video files on an offline computer.
“They have...?†People just asked for a question, but they were interrupted. “They all have it!†said Stress.
The most interesting thing is that there are anti-virus software in the folder that can be updated weekly to the highest version.
The mobile app in the folder has games, and software like Yelp (US version of the public review) helps customers find the ideal restaurant through maps, reviews and menus.
In addition, there are PDF category folders, which contain various electronic versions of newspapers, magazines, online publications photocopy, science and technology, sports, current events, nothing less.
"This is our home-grown Internet," said Zhunier, moving his mouse and smiling, displaying a wide variety of documents.
In addition to the basic subscription fee, users can also pay to buy the “weekly package†category area, the user clicks on the file to open the interface called “Revolicoâ€, and browses the classified information like the Craigslist (US advertising website) to see hundreds of Thousands of merchandise lists, from house leasing to large-screen TVs to car tires.
Merchants who want to sell pay for weekly fast packages, and the more they pay, the better they can get the best viewing location. This service is a cash cow for the weekly fast package, and it is also the prototype of the Cuban advertising market under the planned economy and price control.
Dani’s business empire satisfies Cuba’s media demands of being suppressed by the people, and this underground organization continues to thrive in an environment without internet.
The local government has yet to take action to eradicate "weekly packages," and Danny has also tried to avoid such trouble. “We do not let counter-revolutionary, destructive, obscene eroticism when asked whether it is worried about the impact of his products on the Internet, Danny said, “No, our product is like a huge web page, you can see all of you What you want is still the lowest price. â€
"Speed ​​is the key to defeating your opponent," Danny said confidently.
Now the situation looks like some improvements, such as Google's entry. For example, Etecsa, the Cuban state-owned telecommunications company, recently launched a plan for convenience: Internet connections will be installed in 2000 homes across the country, and 30 hours of Internet access will cost US$15.
As for speed, telecoms proudly announced that it has reached an unprecedented 128Kbps...
Oh~
Probably within 10 years, they didn't need to use this one... After reading this, Lao Bai could not help but leave a single.
See you next time, thanks
