Perhaps not surprisingly, the U.S. leads the deployment, with about 222 WiFi hotspots per million population. However, China has secured a strong second showing, says JiWire, a mobile audience media company. As China also officially practices Internet censorship (ala the Google arrangement) that may be a bit surprising.
