Believe me if it was up to blizzard we'd be all having 1st class networks/infrastructures, but it isn't. Nor can't it be expected of them to lag behind with those who can't keep up. That glass of wine has been poured by all those who kept the wrong people in power and is still keeping them there.
I've seen you post several times and it's almost like you believe that in a few years time we will have 10ms latency to the US and EU.

The reality is that communication is very close to its maximum speed that it will ever be able to reach. The new WACS cable has a fibre2fibre point2point latency of 138ms. It is on the best route between ZA and the UK. That is the lowest that your latency will ever be able to get between ZA and UK.

Will you be content if all games from now on require always on Internet only and your latency can only ever go as low as 150ms? I wouldn't be, and as such I hope that every company that tries to enforce this ends up with a lot of egg on their face.
