The Principality of Monaco (“une principauté d’opérette”) is not a place to do business:
- Monaco has a single ISP, which has a legal monopoly. So, when that ISP is down, all the businesses are barred from operating online. Impossible to switch ISP, since there is only one. In the financial industry, being cut out of the Internet (even for just an hour) is spelled “disaster”.
- Monaco’s ISP filters the sites that you can access.
You should boycott the Principality of Monaco, as long as there is no free Internet there.
