A study released Monday found that Denmark is the world's top country for "cellphone and Internet use," AFP reports. The data was collected by the International Telecommunications Union, which analyzes information and communication technologies (ICTs).

South Korea was previously the "most-connected country" before Denmark took its place. Denmark is followed by Iceland and Britain, and the U.S. ranks 14th. Of Asian countries, Hong Kong was the highest-listed, in ninth place. Last place, meanwhile, went to the Central African Republic.
