Universal Access vs Universal Service It is important to understand the difference. I have argued that Developing countries should only provide Universal Access as the weight of providing Universal Service is way too expensive and would tax too much the business community which is developing the economy so that Universal Service may become a reality one day.

Didn't *say* broadband. Didn't even say "Internet service". Said "Internet *access*", in the non-techspeak meaning of those words.
There are those who would say "Free Internet access is available at the Public Library and the Community Center" counts as "internet access".
What say the peanut gallery?
