USO or UFO?

Will there ever be a USO for UK broadband (if not why not) or is one more likely to see a UFO flying over the 2012 Olympic Stadium?

USO - as time goes on ever more unlikely, as the growing number of altnets for broadband, make it harder to push through, i.e. opposition to it, in case it favours one provider

A USO would likely be an EU thing, not sure we can do that on our own legally.

Why not ? who to place the Obligation on. Avanti satellite ? sorted.

How would you define a USO in terms of service and coverage. How should it be funded - a levy on all broadband ? phone line tax ? etc.

@ yarwell and MrSaffron

Yes I agree and to put it in simplistic terms it would be difficult to set a USO up as there are too many links (weak?) in the chain by which the broadband signal has to travel before the data exits from the customer's router.

UFO more likely.

In reply to a post by 5km:

UFO more likely.
