In short:

Labor has promised $3 billion to upgrade hundreds of thousands of NBN connections and speed up internet services.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the upgrades would "finish" the broadband network first introduced more than a decade ago.

What's next?

The funding has been committed to be delivered under a re-elected Albanese government.

Anybody who thinks the Libs nuclear plan will be operational within 10 years and anywhere near its ridiculous pricetag needs to first explain the NBN shitshow which was going to be 'cheaper and sooner'

Never forget that Turnbull bending over for Murdoch and Telstra was primarily responsible for this.

I can almost see Labor winning by running a strong campaign around this point. Maybe I'm dreamin.

They never run counterpoints on liberal BS and it pisses me off they never call them out on stuff like this.

And I hope they slag off the libs the entire time they are doing it. "We just connected your house to the NBN the libs SHOULD have built years ago but were too busy being a cock sleeve for Murdoch".
