    I usually hate most government spending, but sometimes they get things right. The inland rail was a good project. Cancelling the inland rail is a terrible decision. It is just as important as the NBN, and in this case there isn’t a foreseeable technology that will replace it in 10 years time. Rail is insanely energy and labor efficient compared to trucks. Trucks should only be used for end of journey in a well optimised system.

    @NBN_Australia internet outage since yesterday and still not resolved. Internet provider has no clue what the issue is nor when it will be fixed. Never received any notifications from nbn. You guys waited until Friday to ruined people's weekend? Good job guys.

    @Telstra @NBN_Australia when is my internet going to be fixed? I have been awaiting resolution of the issue since March 3, 2026. I have had 6 appointments cancelled because you allege you fixed it remotely! That’s BS!😡😡😡😡

    @larrikinstreak @robb_j_m The ISP pays a significant portion of the price of a service to NBN. I don’t know where you pulled your **** from to think it was free, but perhaps go fling it somewhere else.

    @news_australian Stick it where it fits Malcolm, and your NBN plan for Australia is a piece of crap.

    @NBN_Australia I need help and my ISP Superloop said you canceled my appointment today. My service has been down all weekend and I need immediate resolution. Please try to be less incompetent given the billions of tax we waste on your service.

    @algorithmsayshi Seems to be a common issue with the NBA league pass and NBN providers sadly.

    @Justme136160 @robb_j_m To be fair, David is not wrong. Telcos will use the NBN infrastructure as they see fit. It’s cheaper to pay to use the NBN infrastructure that is already there than to lay down their own fibre. In fact, telcos like Optus and Telstra are already NBN providers.

    @MurrayWatt This is NBN Mk2 - scrap a system that will work in the long term for an overpriced short term solution.

    @TheKouk Including child care, the ABC etc. is only the first bit of where you’re wrong. Even if you include them in your list, they don’t put a dent on white elephants like the NDIS, NBN, and not to mention all the lost tobacco reve— oh, I’m sorry, I forgot you were a retard. Carry on.

    @Marilynrules1 @stevehearne7 @arbsmichael The competition is basically at retail level and thanks to the nbn there's actually been an upgrade to the fixed line network so there's better service. Significant speed improvement and slight price increase.

    @Sauronlordking If there is one thing I didn't mind from the ALP that would be the NBN in its original form. Then this idiot came around and mutilated it into his own little mixed up mess. That now has to be unraveled at even more expense!!!

    @ItsMissShorty @osborne_sam @robb_j_m What you said is not controversial. We’re trying to understand what you mean by “wifi” being unnecessary. It’s ambiguous. I think you mean NBN Fixed Wireless. Or perhaps 4G/5G telco service. Or Starlink. Or even connecting to your neighbour’s wifi network. 🤷

    @EnergyWrapAU As much as I dislike Turdbull, you'd have to give him small credit for curtailing the NBN blowout that would have been. ALL 3 of these had the exact same problem. Contractors, with little Govt oversight, rorting the system for their own gain. Public servants writing 💩 contracts

  • Harold36089778
    Harold ☢️🔥🏭⚛️ (@Harold36089778) reported

    @MarkoMatvikov Even worse: Labor writes new laws to force super to invest in “building back Aus” like Melb-Syd high speed rail or upgrading NBN. When competition policy allowing global carriers to compete on the Melb-Sydney flight would drive costs down & Starlink is outcompeting NBN today.

  • MFurball
    Mark Fermor (@MFurball) reported

    @Michz45 And you seem to think giving the government more money will actually benefit those services. Why do you think the gov does not get involved in baking bread? Because it would taste **** and cost $100 per loaf. That's your Medicare, NDIS and nbn to name a few

    @Boom_ThatHurt @AvidCommentator The NBN was already billions over budget, years behind schedule and drowning in rollout failures before Abbott changed a thing. Labor sold a Ferrari, delivered a **** box, then blamed the next driver for the smoke coming out of the bonnet.

    @THATS_RIGHT_YA @robb_j_m nbn fixed wireless made me pay for 50mbps plan if i wanted to get 25mbps <two mbps faster than the adsl service it replaced> for 4 years, if i dropped to the 25mbps plan would deliver 12.5mbps. took them 6 years to deliver the 100Mbps plans they promised at launch.

    @TimWilsonMP Lets think: ICAC??, No cuts to ABC/SBS, NBN faster cheaper?? You lot are up to ears in it. The broken promise is at best 25% as it only applies to new builds and you can take the old idea too. Get off the BS cigar mate

    @eevblog I have both, NBN service stability is far less than Starlink's, so it is my backup. I could probably push traffic through both, did that with Telstra and Optus cable modems back in the day, but Starlink is so fast I haven't needed to bother.

    @JH_Otway_Ranges @craigkellyAFEE we never needed an nbn . mobile phone for data was faster and cheaper. Now starlink is faster and cheaper again NBN is a 200 billion dollar disaster

    @fuIIcreamy @robb_j_m Nah sounds more like "Libs screwed me over but I'll blame NBN coz thats what Libs told me" issue since the poster is likely on the overpriced Wireless NBN which was half arsed on roll out That or just someone spouting **** to keep the whole NBN was a waste of money crap going

    @TolsonKiefer @stevehearne7 @arbsmichael According to AI: The Australian Government has poured a total of approximately $35 billion into the National Broadband Network (NBN) through equity investments and capital injections.

    @MarkoMatvikov How ? Debt is down They are fixing NDIS Inland rail NBN Robodebt Not sure what you want to do about Snowy & AUKUS. And $1.2 T debt won’t disappear. It’s inherited. LNP / ON are calling to increase defence.

    @pointman69 @CefaiJason @robb_j_m 10 years and $30b wasted on LNPs stupid idea. All the whole Turnbull invested in fibre rollouts in Europe and the supplier of copper to the nbn

  • imboudee
    M (@imboudee) reported

    @THATS_RIGHT_YA @robb_j_m I doubt that’s a problem with the NBN infrastructure and perhaps more to do with your provider (TPG). I’m not sure what a 20 cm network cable has to do with much. At gigabit speeds I’d suggest a Cat7 network cable, to be sure to be sure. They’re fairly cheap nowadays.

    @robb_j_m Starlink. A satellite connection through the NBN in our rural area was a bit of a nightmare. Starlink is reliable, no limits on usage, and we never get throttled. I'll never go back.

    @cjoye Sell the NBN? Yeah because when we sold the electricity network, that worked out well for prices. Bringing CGT in line with tax on wages is going to be one of the fairest tax decisions made. Nothing will change otherwise businesses would have left for a tax haven already.
