The MA Net study provides information on the distribution and intensity of Internet use in Switzerland. This usage data can be cross-referenced with various socio-demographic and geographical indications.

The MA Net 2025-2 study shows that internet use is firmly established amongst the population, with 94.4% of people aged 14 and over being online. The uptick amongst retirees is interesting: over the last three years, the proportion of internet users aged 65 and above has increased by 4.3 percentage points. Today, 79.8% of this age group use the internet.
