Copper broadband phaseout will leave UK customers with higher bills and less choice, says comparison site

But there s a cost of this light-speed, ultrafast revolution.

A new report to the effect that the country will find itself out on a limb technology-wise unless the erratic antics on the part of the body politic can focus, just a little bit for just a wee while, on devising and articulating a strategy on emerging technologies.
