Guardian: Compulsory broadband access mooted for new homes

Guardian: Compulsory broadband access mooted for new homes

"All new homes will be fitted with the infrastructure for broadband access, under a government proposal aimed at boosting the public's use of the internet."

Cable internet? All they're talking about is an empty pipe from the house to the pavement. And if the area isn't cabled, it won't make much difference. Such regulation has been in the US and Korea for years.
