The NBN does not stop. It is altered to the Abbott/Turnbull model of fiber to the node and copper to the house. You can always pay for fiber from the node to your house. IT businesses, big business, schools, unis and hospitals are supposedly all going to get fiber direct, supposedly. But I will believe that when I fucking see it. LNP is going to be slashing funding from hospitals and schools. Why would they spend money on fiber internet to the school but remove funding for other upgrades? Any houses already with fiber to the premise will obviously stay that way, the rest of us just have to suck it up. Labor NBN would have been a massive boost for Aus economy. Libs will likely build it then sell it off to Telstra like they sell everything else they get their fucking mitts on.

This model will be something in the order of 25-100 MBps, the Labor plan was going to be closer to 1000MBps.
