Announced on 7 April, Australia's new $43 billion plan for broadband will deliver 100 Mbits/sec download speeds to 90% of Australian households within eight years via optical fibre lines running all the way to their homes, schools and workplaces. The network will be built and operated by a new company in which the Commonwealth will be the majority shareholder. This talk considers the origins of the new plan and asks who will benefit and who will pay for it. This talk delivered as part of the Institute for Social Research lunchtime seminars
