NBN policy fails to speak to rural voters

Stop
The federal government has begun rolling out its National Broadband Network (NBN) with the plan of connecting all Australians with faster broadband. The current policy ensures 93% of the population is connected to Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) technology as opposed to the Coalition’s Fiber to the Node (FTTN) technology. The difference is cost and efficiency, but what happens to the 7%?
Remote properties are the most affected, receiving wireless or satellite broadband instead of the more efficient fiber technology, so how do the differing policies stack up?
