Kim dotcom hasn't proposed investing. He has shown interest in being the biggest customer. The risk of investing in the cable is huge, there isn't a datacenter in NZ that can utilize the proposed bandwidth increase. This is essentially a chicken-or-the-egg situation where someone other than dotcom will be bearing the risk.

- olalonde 14y agoAh ok, got it. This sentence was a bit misleading though: > Dotcom took to Twitter recently with a new-found passion, promising that he would relaunch the “Pacific Fibre” project for the country and deliver “free broadband for all [New Zealanders].” How exactly does he plan to do that? By suing the pants off the American movie industry.
