It sometimes is easy to forget that it isn’t as easy to become an ISP in some nations, as in others. Consider the matter of “unlicensed spectrum,” for example.
“Unlicensed” spectrum exists. But use of that spectrum is, in about 66 percent of nations, is not really non-licensed. Based on responses from 75 countries, 33 percent of national regulators require a license to use 2.4, or 5 GHz “unlicensed” spectrum, a study found.
Another 33 percent of national regulators require obtaining an operating license, though not a spectrum license. About 33 percent do not require a license of any type. In a small fraction of cases (two percent) use is forbidden.
