Re: More granular data?
Very true! I definitely think that should be taken into consideration. The US is a big place and it's not easy to produce technology everywhere here.

Re: More granular data?
@mhhf1ve Exactly, different factors can shift the data to result in various different outcomes.

Re: More granular data?
Rankings are always subject to how the criteria are weighted. The annual colleges/university rankings are constantly changing depending on how much weight is given to alumni donations or job prospects for recent grads... there's no single "correct" ranking.

Re: More granular data?
@mhhf1ve well, here you really can choose a set of facts that support the contention that America is first, or in some later place, depending on which criteria you focus on. That Japan actually holds that slot in some views reminds me of my undergraduat days when my economics professor selected David Halberstam's book as the text for the class.

Re: More granular data?
@dcawrey You're sure we're #1? It must depend on the poll. US holds the top slot followed by Japan here: https://www.thetoptens.com/high-tech-countries/ But others have Japan in the top slot followed by the US. Bloomberg breaks up technological advance into various categories with different countries taking honors for innovation, R & D, manufacturing, etc. see https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2015-innovative-countries/

Re: More granular data?
dcawrey - certainly true, there's smaller, more densely populated countries that can get faster deploy and recoup costs on fiber.

Re: More granular data?
At least we are on our way. 

Look, I get the irony that while we are ranked 14th globally, we're #1 for producing tech. One thing to keep in mind: America is a pretty BIG place. Hard to get 10 Mbit/s out in Montana. Or Idaho.
