How Czechia goes online
Many Czechs still type Seznam into the address bar before anything else; it is the homepage, the mailbox and the news in one habit that never quite died. Alza handles electronics and appliances, Heureka is opened to compare prices before the order goes in, and Portál občana covers the paperwork with the state, from an extract to a permit. The whole loop, from comparing to filing, can be finished at the kitchen table.
Around 90.8%. With a population of about 10.9 million and 9.9 million online, roughly 1 million people are still offline — mostly because of rural coverage, device cost and age.
