In my opinion, a data connection to the home should be considered infrastructure equal to roads. A natural consequence of that is that the government creates and maintain said network, probably by contracting the work to private companies on a limited time contract that is put in public procurement procedures as per EU law. That way power infrastructure and other companies that solve a similar problem can make a bid that is significantly cheaper than it would otherwise would be. Once physical connections is public infrastructure, multiple providers can pay for capacity and sell to the end user with great competition resulting.
