How "Technology" indicators are measured

Technology indicators (internet users, mobile subscriptions, broadband, ICT services) are reported by the ITU based on operator returns. Mobile subscription counts often exceed 100% because of multi-SIM behavior, particularly in markets where users have separate SIMs for work, personal, and data. Internet user figures rely on surveys and can lag actual adoption.
