Re: Again the original promise of FTTH is reninged

It would have been far cheaper for Labor to give Google $20 billion back in 2010 to build a wholesale 1Gbps network across Australia. We would have ended up with a service far superior to Labor's FTTP. However ideology prevented Labor from negotiating with the private sector. Instead they have recreated a government telecommunications monopoly with all of the associated issues.

Sorry to disappoint you, but with FTTH (FTTP) Labo never intended for Australians to have the best speed, instead they added speed tiers to the pricing model resulting in 85% of Australians connecting at 25Mbps or slower.
