Default Fujitsu to put superfast broadband in villages

http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology...ibre-plans-row


And they will have to use BT poles and underground ducts.

BT want the same Money Help,
but we all know how Greedy BT refused to help villages - so Feck 'em.


And Money from the Bloated BBC will be used to help the deal.





"Fujitsu is to create a superfast broadband network for rural parts of the UK, rivalling BT's service.
Virgin Media and TalkTalk have already said they will use it to provide internet services. It will also be open to local authorities.
Much of the system will be built on BT infrastructure, such as underground ducting and phone poles, which it has been forced to open up to competitors.
Fujitsu wants £500m of government money to help fund the project.
That would account for the lion's share of the £530m the government has set aside to stimulate rural broadband projects.
This cash comes from a fund originally intended to help the digital switchover. A further £300m, from the BBC licence fee, will be available after 2015."
