  @ajamesbragg If you get the spider out of your pocket, you could hook up Fibre NBN & save sprouting stupid ****. Labor banned CFMEU & instigated an enquiry into corrupt (LNP like activity).

  @TheLucidyn @Batman2242 Kind of proving the point. Gov can't perceive anything. Making large Capex decisions that are supposed to be generational. It was anti competitive from the outset. Private companies (TPG notable) were prohibited from building out their own network. Regardless, I can have starlink internet now for about the same monthly price as the NBN except i didn't have to front the Capex (and debt) for it. NBN very likely has a negative ROI. I wish we judged policies by outcomes not intentions.

  @blowingtom2 @SenSHenderson they also repealed the universal service obligations and the financial penalties for telstra not meeting them. now every time the power goes out, so do all the landlines*, then 4 hours later the mobile and nbn towers shut down. * yes we still have them, nbn not fit to replace

  I saw a dog tethered to a tree on Weir Place Higgins, I thought the NBN installers put it there, to guard their gear. On the way back from Belconnen mall, I saw 2 pound workers rescuing the dog. They had a complaint and came to take it. I said it looked like the NBN guys or a

  @TimLooker @ABCaustralia I knew our communications system was down the tube with no stopping it when NBN bought the Copper Wire Network from Telstra and start decommissioning it, we should have had our Copper Network (which served us well) continue to do so along side Fibre etc.

  @Adam_and_EVs My friend just followed me to do the same. NBN is terrible. If we had proper fibre probably a different situation but

  No wifi today, we've had some electrical problems, mainly to do with the washing machine. That just means a relaxing Sunday of playing them games (now that the electricity is on). (NBN always takes a long time to recover.)

  Downloading apps to buy cheap end equipment to give something’s a try and wow this not a pleasant experience. As Tech Lead would not have let this code out. Session management is so poor. The sites lag even on town based NBN. No company cares anymore tbh they just lock you in.

  @TheLucidyn @Batman2242 No, it was a very bad idea, the original OPAL idea was excellent, a public private partnership to lift rural speeds up to that of the cities and was costed at about $4 billion. Rudd screwed that up with massive mission creep and created the NBN.

  @ShaneOliverAMP A big part of the problem is that starting from the 2010's more of our spending now goes to megatech platforms that extract Australian revenue without the old local multiplier. When $100 went to Ford or Holden, a retailer or a local media company, a large portion recycled through local wages, suppliers, property, logistics and tax. Now when $100 goes to a global ad platform, streaming service or cloud provider much more can disappear offshore through IP, reseller fees and related party charges with far less local employment or supplier spend despite the use of infrastructure like NBN and roads. So government keeps importing demand and taxing workers harder to fund services while more private spending leaks offshore to low local footprint platforms. That extraction is not productive for our economy and is increasingly an issue, especially when profits are being offshored and Australian taxpayers are unfairly carrying the burden.

  @ArtistAffame That's not bad. The only option I have where I am is Fixed Wireless. Essentially 4G/5G cell tower and fixed "antenna" on the roof. NBN service via iinet (TPG). Given the distance from the tower I only get a portion of the theoretical maximum throughput. Costs more than your plan.
