The answer to the question above is a term called global digital divide.

Global digital divide refers to the global inequalities that occurred in the adoption of computing and information resources and opportunities that can be received from these resources between developing and well-developed countries.

An example of this would be internet speeds, which can vastly differ from one country to another – even the lowest package available in the U.S.A, for example, can be faster than the mid-tier package offered in Cambodia.
