In particular, in Asia and Europe there are now several examples where public funds have contributed to next-generation broadband deployment. There are differences of views about the merits of such intervention. Some people point to these projects as pioneering examples of the positive role that the public sector can and should play in facilitating the accelerated roll-out of next-generation broadband for the benefit of local citizens and the economy. Others argue that these projects have risked pre-empting commercial deployment, created market distortions and may ultimately prove an extravagant misuse of taxpayers’ money.
