  @KingstaKingsta1 @craigkellyAFEE Not the Howard garbage again. Keating sold CBA for $8B and spent the money bailing out VIC Labor. CBA is sort $260B and has given $150B in dividends. Howard sold Telstra for $45B (now $52B), used the money to pay off debt and create the future fund, it’s worth $320B

  @tomdflynn I am. We just changed from Telstra wireless which cost us $110 a month with crappy service to Starlink. We are happy with the speed, just a little annoyed as they put the price up from $69 to $75 in the first month. Still cheaper and faster.

  @belinduhpyne There was little left to sell after Hawke and Keating sold federal and state assets in their Privatisation rampage. Key assets sold under the Hawke government included: The Commonwealth Bank of Australia Qantas Telstra CSL These sales were part of a broader strategy that also involved floating the Australian dollar, deregulating financial markets, and dismantling the tariff system. While critics argued this abandoned traditional Labor values and contributed to issues like increased household debt, supporters view these reforms as essential modernizations that 'strengthened' the Australian economy. We're real strong now eh?

  The real risk isn't SpaceX leaving — it just launched DtD with Telstra in June 2025. The risk is one MNO-satellite tie-up controlling the entire mobile-satellite layer. The fix: use-it-or-lose-it milestones + open access licence terms.

  @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.

  @robb_j_m LNP stopped the original rollout of a national fiber network to buy back the copper network from telstra they sold to telstra in the 90s in an utterly deranged move that blew out costs and rollout time..
