"BT own the HW and the gubberment don't own BT so what ever else happens they still own the HW."

BT has been fairly blatantly using Openreach to leverage its monopoly and frustrate competitors.

It was precisely _because_ of ongoing market abuse by BT that the New Zealand authorities forced the demerger of the incumbent Telco there (after 30 years of the worst market abuse seen in the western world they saw the writing on the wall and tried to sell everyone on a BT/Openreach-style setup. NZ regulators investigated what's been happening here and decided the only way forward was complete demerger.)
