  @WindwardAI Since my gubbermint won't save me, I'd better **** off the NBN and pay double for Starlink.

  @philmupp1 She's gone from Duttons 9 mini nuclear reactors to two full size nuclear power stations (not to be built near her house). Keeps coal going beyond Gina's lifespan. They should research Hinckley Point C. And you thought the NBN cost blowout was bad. Multiply that with Aukus.

  @immyonboard @Telstra If you are talking about NBN, there are many choices of ISPs that are superior to Telstra. If you need mobile, anyone on the Vodafone network is probably the best (seems to be the most reliable of the 3 networks)

  My @NBN has been down since 9am & they won't come to fix issue till Monday - 4 days (2nd time in 2 wks)! My Telstra hotspotting is weak. Time to hook up with @starlink Issue here is local installer charges an arm/leg etc to install sys on roof etc. I may have to suck it up.

  @MadsMelbourne Booked @NBN_Australia on Monday - said they’d be there between 8-12 - took day off and no one turned up - incompetent govt that doesn’t give a **** about people’s time - @Starlink here income - FU NBN

  @JEChalmers So passing unfunded time bombs such as NDIS & your **** NBN plan just before you were turfed means nothing? Glad you don't do my budget!

  Never vote LNP. (@LNPvoterfail) reported 17 minutes ago

  @GusLefty The LNP let the NDIS run away. Deliberately in an attempt to make it unsustainable and shut it down. It's what they do. Medicare. NBN. Veterans. Robodebt.

  @ariel_haivri okay, but if it was a bunch of blonde nordic giyureses who converted five minutes ago... Something tells me Hadesh would be reaching out to NBN to charter a group flight and help get them set up for Shabbos.

  Nick Hendrix (@hendrix_uk) reported 18 minutes ago

  @bazzacc2 Including Malcolm Turnbull who changed the specs of the @NBN_Australia from FTTP to FTTN, thus relying on old copper to transmit from the node to the dwelling It slowed down our broadband speeds significantly to save a few dollars How many billions have we lost in productivity?

• 
  Anthony (@AnthonyPHoran) reported 19 minutes ago

  @jarro56 @isaacfloyd13 There was bipartisan support for the NDIS & NBN because they were popular as their projected cost were fractions of what they actually became. The NBN could have been delivered by private sector for fraction of cost & is likely to be obsolete in future.

  @theheraldsun Musk saved rural Australia from such a slow and unreliable service! NBN fails all Australians. We should thank the uniparty for a company that will never deliver any financial return to taxpayers and has left us paying for very expensive internet by other OECD standards.

  The Steps (@mcnamara_team) reported 27 minutes ago

  @TopherField Satellite has been about forever, the government never got in its way, I had it and it was ****. I used NBN relatively successfully over inferior satellite technologies until Starlink came along. Your opinions don’t appear to align with my experiences accurately.

  @NBN_Australia how bad is the NBN !!! - took annual leave today and no bastard turned up - FU NBN - you’re another govt disgrace - they couldn’t give a **** about the customer or their time - another @ausgov disaster - we are a third world country

  the Black Sheep (@rivet0011) reported 34 minutes ago

  @theheraldsun NBN had a chance but on purpose provided a rediculous garbage service backed by a corrupt corporation of a govt. Just look at their failure ads blaming a jug or toaster. They really wanted it to all fail & succeeded at it

  Paul Galea (@VK4PWG) reported 34 minutes ago

  @TopherField I tried for 6 months to get my faulty NBN fixed (FTTN - copper/xdsl for the last 0.9km). NBN blamed the retailer who blamed NBN. I gave up and put in Starlink and have never looked back (4 years ago). NBN dug up the street 2 years ago to install fibre to the premises - I have a pit at the boundary of my property. My property is marked as 'NBN Ready'. Problem is that they never actaully pulled any fibre in the street !! The NBN is a huge scam.

  LCHF Matt (@LCHF_Matt) reported 38 minutes ago

  @TTAlwaysWins I’m pretty sure our issue is water ingress in the pits. When it rains it stops working. The last time it stopped (3rd time in 6 weeks), by the time NBN came to fix it (4 days) it was working again, so they blamed us. But Dodo has line tests showing it wasn’t working and I have photos showing the DSL link not connecting. The NBN is a white elephant. The government needs to sell it now and get whatever it can and move on. I ordered the Starlink dish the same day I booked the NBN repair. The dish came the same day as the NBN tech.

  @shaunacohn @Starlink If there is no service in your area, it’s likely due to development, outage or missing database record. Check the NBN Rollout Map on their website. Verify your address. Your address may be missing. There is widespread NBN coverage on Gold Coast. Check their website.

  Still sans @NBN_Australia They came out Monday, identified the issue & refused to fix it. Told them that I was over them & that I'll be signing up with @Starlink Looking forward to receiving my kit from Starlink soon. Hotspotting with my @Telstra mobile is 1/2 speed of a snail. Painful much. Going crazy. Don't need this stress.

  @TheKouk Absolute bullshit, we were 0 under Howard, then 747 went big, Gillard and Rudd again, nbn commitments etc. Abbott slowed it down then Morrison due mostly to covid made it jump and now albo and jimflation have rocked it past 1t. You clowns can’t count

• 
  🌸 Rita Gee ♥ 🇦🇺 (@Riogallica) reported 45 minutes ago

  @desmondbratcat @nbn @Starlink In a sense its not the ISPs fault, its the NBNs fault. The problem as per last week, an NBN tech came out to connect someone in my complex. Seems he unplugged me at the pit. I don't know why we still have ISPs when they just default to the NBN to come out & fix the issue.

  Just Thinking? (@ThoughtsSending) reported 47 minutes ago

  @senbmckenzie AUKUS is an LNP brain fart. It should NEVER have proceeded. Australians tighten their belts & miss out on essentials like: Health/Dental/Aged/NDIS/Climate Action/Housing/DV Action/NBN/CSIRO/Education /First Nations …

  Tas Tudor (@tastudor0173) reported 49 minutes ago

  @BrentHodgson What's more interest in is the land mines left by a government. The education reforms from RGR, NDIS RGR, NBN RGR just 3 that spring to mind. Abbott should have smashed them all up and we would be in a much better place now with cut down versions. That alone over 10 years must be $500bn.

  @craigkellyAFEE i actually thought it would of been way more than that, not that i like the bloke but for once his budget hasn't blown to to NBN porportions. I'm trying to get the AI to work out how many Starlink Service Networks to cover Australia. The slowest speed availiable 100Mbps, $75, UNLIMITED. To basically run a fishing line size string from a pit to the home, bolt on 2 Boxes, connect the fishing wire and bobs your uncle.. So if the Blowout was 10 or 14 Billion on a fishing wire size cable, can you image the shitshow it will be on the blowout to run all the transmission for their NOT so green energy. Lets hope we don't have to look at their muppet heads in a ocuple of yearsd, bloodty trainwrecks they are

  I told people when the Krudd had his NBN brain fart that it would be a colossal waste of money and that the future was wireless, and people told me I was being stupid. I remember the French government and their massive white elephant the Minitel system. Same government stupidity, every single time.

  Peter Leversha (@PeterLeversha) reported 55 minutes ago

  @Johnuh9d @AvidCommentator The NBN is expensive crap. The NDIS has turned into a complete rort. The GFC was an American housing crisis that had very little to to do with us. The pandemic was an over reaction. They've blown the lot. Money wasted with zero return on investment. Both parties are responsible for this mess and all I see for the future is higher unemployment and a low currency. It's going to be a double whammy. We are already in a per capita recession. The country needs some serious reform and it needs it right now..

  @PatrickGormanMP Labor will bankruptcy the country on that hill but never say how they will fund it just like NBN blow out and the unfundedNDIS let alone the states debts racked up the LNP had pay for as Labor now claims the LNP created the trillion dollar debt.
