[Abstract]

This work summarizes the source of risk and difficulties in the process of broadband investment; it then proposes an industrial organization in which a government-run platform intermediates monopolistically the demand and supply of broadband infrastructure service with bit-streams, thereby making it possible to introduce competition both at the layer of infrastructure construction and at the layer of applications services, to transfer the risk of broadband investment from providers to the users represented by a government, and to realize a universal service of BB access services.
