  @SharkaByrne @newscomauHQ I paid extra to keep it at the time, so it would be accessible when nbn goes down. Or so I thought. Not sure what I paid extra for ( possibly another outlet )but it didn’t work, totally useless when it’s down. So much for progress.

  @ianclarkeAU With today's technology, the NBN simply cannot compete with a wireless network like @Starlink, and that is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future... #Starlink has a LOT of advantages; completely replacing fixed networks is not one of them and won't be anytime soon.

  @OzHempRocks @MarkoMatvikov 1/3 The latent, already eligible scenario Well, welcome to the world of whacky PBO estimations, eh? Let me see – so PBO are not to be trusted to estimate NBN, NDIS, Snowy 2.0, nuclear (etc) – but we trust them here? I see.... Let’s look at their stats and I’ll explain them to you for your benefit. This is how you come to quote the ‘uptake’ figure. See embedded table. So here is the 26% quoted as being ‘eligible’, or what you call uptake. But here is where that gets problematic. 1. Your optimum scenario relies on someone having $0 income. They’re not even filing an ITR! The $0 scenario does not apply to PBO modelling, as they’re not in that cohort at C, which drives D & then E. 2. Of greater relevance - of that 26%, this cohort includes any permutation of incomes for couples, the overwhelming majority of whom: a. Are eligible but earning in the same tax brackets (eg $45K and $75K, or $80K and $130K, or $200K and $200K) and hence receive no benefit at all, or b. Are in different tax brackets but are both at the lower end of the income scale (eg one at $40K the other at $60K – moderates out to $50K apiece saving $500) c. Are in different tax brackets, earning good incomes, but where the disparity is insignificant (eg one at $75K, the other at $150K – a saving of $1200) Of the ‘eligible’ pool of 26% of tax filers or 16% of the population, most of them receive $0 benefit as they ARE eligible but are both in the same tax bracket (2a). A large proportion end up with ‘something, but not material’. Before anyone jumps down my throat, consider this – the ALP’s WATO policy due to commence 2027 is $250 per person, so either; - ON does intend to continue WATO, which just further piles the burden on the tax system or - ON rescinds this, and most people (90% of income tax filers) are actually worse off. See example 2b above. They’d be no better off. So, I presume ON will inherit the (dubious) WATO and add IS (income splitting) into the mix. We just end up with a ludicrously over-engineered tax system. Punchline - we end up with between 1-3% of the population who receive a material benefit. It is probably closer to 2.5% of the voting population. Many parents will think they are eligible but end up receiving nothing. Which is the essence of populist policy. Let me be honest – the ALP WATO is fairer, simpler, and better. So, you either inherit it and over-engineer the system or discard it and wear the ire of the population. Or take my advice and engineer a far better, fit for purpose, future proofed model.

  @DoodyDarren @CovfefeDnUnder Can NBN do this? No, and it never will. Of course wired networks, such as aarpnet are way better for some applications. The fallacy is that NBN is about technology, when it’s about a cross subsidy.

  @5BNylonTip Kind of like the Coalition govt pumping FTTN tech for the NBN where we'd need Air Conditioned cabinets in the street to cool the active network gear, instead of just installing passive(ish) Fibre Optics. AU is not super intelligent when it comes to tech, from a govt perspective.
