Ethiopia is significantly different and unique, in its own unusual way, because of the government monopoly telecom. Other people can correct me if I'm wrong, but unless the situation has changed in the past two years, all small to medium sized ISPs in Ethiopia are mandated by law to be downstream of the government run telecom ASN. Also the government owned national telecom has a monopoly on all international fiber connections to neighboring countries (at OSI layer 1), and for things like STM/SDH or 1/10/ Gbps Ethernet L2 transport services to any location outside of Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Internet is also subject to significant censorship and attempted blockage of VPN and VoIP services.
Doesn't at all sound that different from China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran or Myanmar... and in the case of international connectivity openness, Swaziland... Mark.
