On the other hand, I haven't seen where Britain has intentionally and
publicly set up a place like Guantanamo Bay specifically so that they
could hold people there in an extra-legal status.

Well, even when we stack the deck by saying that "a county is broadband-enabled
if *one* customer has 128K connectivity",  the numbers are pretty bad.  If
anything, Canada has *more* wide-open spaces than we do, a lower population
density, and *they* manage an *average* of 7mbit speeds for consumer broadband.
Try getting that even in most of the well-populated suburban areas of the US.

Oh, and there's cell phones too.  We seem to be several years behind the curve
on that as well.
