Гренландиядағы телекоммуникациялар және медиа жүйесі

Telecommunications in Greenland include radio, television, fixed and mobile telephones, and the Internet. Greenland has, by law, only one service provider for telecommunications and the Internet, TELE Greenland, which is fully owned by the Greenlandic Home Rule government. TELE Greenland provides switched telephone and data, land mobile communications, and VHF and MF shore to ship communication. This type of monopoly is not uncommon in Greenland.

Television in Greenland began in the 1960s. Privately owned transmitters were created to receive TV from Canada, Iceland, and mainland Denmark. This can date as far back when television was introduced to Greenland in the 1960s. It was possible to receive TV from Canada with a normal household TV antenna, but color transmissions were NTSC and signals were in very bad quality and however in some circumstances, television transmissions were not available at all due to factors such as weather conditions or time of day, even for the people who owned private transmitters. Greenland did not have any local TV service until 1982. The state broadcaster is Kalaallit Nunaata Radioa (KNR, Greenlandic Broadcasting Corporation), which provides one television and one radio service nationwide. Both broadcast in Greenlandic and Danish. Administered as an independent public corporation by the Greenlandic government, KNR has a seven person board and management committee. They employ 100 people and are funded publicly and by advertising. A few private local TV and radio stations are also available as Danish public radio rebroadcasts. There are also American Forces Network stations, operated by the United States Air Force. Greenlanders owned an estimated 30,000 radios and 30,000 television sets, as of 2002.

Greenland has only one major Internet Service Provider (ISP): Tele Greenland (Tele Post Greenland A/S). Greenland has only one major data center: Owned by Tele Greenland in Nuuk. The country code for top level domains is gl
Internet and telephone services rely on the Greenland Connect submarine communications cables for external traffic.

As a territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, Greenland has a democratically elected home rule government whose powers may encompass all matters except foreign and national security affairs, police services, and monetary matters. Greenlanders have the same rights throughout the kingdom as other citizens. The Danish government places no restrictions on access to the Internet and there are no credible reports that e mail or Internet chat rooms are monitored without appropriate legal authority. Authorities continue to employ an Internet filter designed to block child pornography. In no known cases did the filter affect legitimate sites. The Danish Constitution provides for freedom of speech and press with some limitations such as cases involving child pornography, libel, blasphemy, hate speech, and racism, and the government generally respects these rights in practice.
