The Internet in Indonesia is the very same Internet in Eritrea, as it is in Canada. We can't quite split that…
I admit that I haven’t been to Eritrea or Indonesia, but using Ethiopia and Malaysia as stand-ins (which I have been to), I can say that while they are the same internet, the level of development, the payment systems which are usable via said internet, and other aspects of the daily use and capabilities which can be utilized on the internet in those countries does vary greatly. For example, Apple Pay is somewhat ubiquitous in Canada. It’s virtually unheard of in Ethiopia. My travels to Malaysia were not recent enough for me to comment accurately on the current state of things. M-Pesa is widely accepted in Kenya, but not at all in the US or Canada. PayPal is popular in the US, but not so much in most of the rest of the world. YMMV. IPv6 is readily available on almost every mobile phone in the US. Less so in Kenya or Tanzania, Eritrea, Canada, or Indonesia. While all connected networks are part of the same big I Internet, not all networks are created or maintained equal and not all services on those networks are ubiquitously available to all users of the big I Internet.
