@Tayzlor @NBN_Australia @elonmusk Telstra should have structurally separated with the infrastructure part doing the roll out with some gov funding, but telstra under Sol wouldn't participate. NZ telecom did just that and their speeds keep increasing as network keeps making money to fund upgrades

@Tayzlor @NBN_Australia @elonmusk CBDs were served by fibre well before NBN was ever dreamt up. Unis also had fibre - AARNet. The problem was residential, the failing copper, poor Optus cable. Unfortunately the market was doing nothing as Telstra controlled it all.

@DannySauter I asked Capt Farmer at the last NBN meeting why SF can't issue 172 tickets, impound 12 cars, serve 4 warrants at a Sideshow, like San Jose did at their last Sideshow and Capt Farmer said with absolute straight face "Our city doesn't like to entrap people!" - I kid you not.

@nogulagsagain Cutting waste is different. Paul Keating introduced the competitive public service policy. Removed by Kevin O7, so they could build a Telstra quoted $6.4 billion NBN for over $80 Billion. Re-introduce that and "rivers of cash."

@TMFScottP @RizviAbul NBN Co (i.e. the Australian public) has paid Telstra tens of millions of dollars for access to the copper wire network we used to own.

@NBN_Australia How about installing the finer optic lines across Australia instead of hybrid lines and the funding that the government cut because they realised it was too expensive to lay down

I moved to Tassie 2013 but retired early because Coalition screwed us all on the NBN & the house I’d bought on a broken govt promise was cut back to FTTN. At last I’m getting the FTTP I was promised near 10 yrs ago. ( Aussie Broadband is doing the install in coming weeks.)

@TMFScottP In NZ, retail and wholesale arms were sold off separately and they now have speeds we can only dream of. Telstra invested years in fighting with the govt rather than building good and available infrastructure. NBN wouldn’t have been necessary if we had gone down the NZ path.

@TPG_Telecom I have lost internet access for whole day, NBN service. Called service desk and waiting queue is 2 hours.

Completely over it.

Local @NBN_Australia outage now coming up for 5 hours. Shame about the work I'm meant to be doing, eh? #NBN

@FinancialReview The medium (ie glass fibre) will alway have an advantage over radio waves for bandwidth and speed. The issue is that people can get all they need from the current 5G data speeds. So, unless our data demands are going to sky rocket (how much 4k video do i need?), NBN will suffer.

@ChandAshok At the direction of LNP. That's the critical bit of info. This write off is purely down to LNP taking a sound investment and trying to reuse old tech never intended for high speed broadband #nbn
