    You filthy, lucky *******s


    Basically, 90% of the Australian populous will be given access to fiber connections with speeds in excess of 100Mbps. The other 10% will be given wireless access with speeds of at least 12Mbps.


    I believe my dad pays about $30 a month for our fiber service, and we only get 3Mbps.


    Holy ****ing **** America, get up off your ass and roll out fiber already....


    [EDIT] Best of all, the Australian network will be open-access, meaning that there is no individual company forcing bandwidth caps or excessive prices on everyone. ISP's will be able to buy a section of the cable and sell their service through it (at least that's the impression I was given).

    This is probably the best thing to happen to the internet since Japan.

                The censorship will be up to the ISP's. As long as you go with an ISP that doesn't censor, you'll be fine.

                And besides that, there's ways around the censorship.
