Telecommunication is different in every country in the world. Some countries rely on telecommunication more than others. For example, the United States and the Philippines. In the U.S., more than 400 million people mainly rely on Internet Hosts while barely any people in the Philippines use Internet Hosts. A little more than 200 million people are Internet Users in the U.S., while about 5 million people in the Philippines are Internet Users. Slightly over 100 million people in the U.S. use telephones, but only about 6 million people in the Philippines use telephones. Last but not least, in the U.S., slightly over 200 million people use cell phones, while about 48 million people use cellphones in the Philippines. As you can see, there is a huge difference between the telecommunications in the United States and the Philippines. Based on the charts, you can also tell the the U.S. depends mostly on Internet Hosts while the Philippines depends mostly on Cell Phones.

I think there is a huge difference between the United States and the Philippines because in the Philippines, telecommunication is mainly used to communicate back and forth over their cellphones with their friends and family members living in different countries all over the world. Meanwhile, in the U.S., the average American uses so much technology in general! It's no surprise as to why there are so many people using several different kinds of telecommunications in the U.S. In the U.S., people text and call their friends everyday and rely on devices that have Internet to catch up with social media or to look up information. Based on the chart, you can also tell that the U.S. probably has more people in general using different telecommunications than in the Philippines. In the U.S., the chart ranges from zero to about 500 million people, while in the Philippines, the chart ranges from zero to 60 million people. Therefore, it is no wonder why the U.S. has more people relying on telecommunication than in the Philippines.
