I have to wonder if the villagers were given a choice of faster
internet, where 5% of them had their bank account cleaned out, and 5%
had their identity stolen, or slower, secure internet which they would
choose?

If you’re in $TinyVillage in $PoorAfricanCountry, do you even have a bank account or an online identity that could be 
stolen?

Just my $0.02 on this increasingly off-topic thread.
