How Jordan goes online
In Amman, the first thing opened in the morning is WhatsApp, where lunch plans and the question of who pays this month's electricity bill get settled. For local news, Roya is one of the pages read with coffee, and its headlines feed the rest of the day's argument. Bills used to mean a trip across town; now water, power and university fees are paid through eFAWATEERcom on a single screen. Careem covers most neighbourhoods, though the old yellow taxis have not disappeared.
Around 88.7%. With a population of about 11.5 million and 10.2 million online, roughly 1.3 million people are still offline — mostly because of rural coverage, device cost and age.
