Disgraceful, IMO. The last Liberal government over here entrenched Telstra as a monopoly by selling it off in its entirety. They were kicked out of the process last time, due to not taking it seriously, now that their cronies are back in power, they're off the hook.
http://abbotsinternet.com.au/ gives a good idea of just how bad the offerings over here are. And that doesn't show half of it. My internet drops on a regular basis, and if you call out a technician you will typically get slugged with a callout fee of $100 or so regardless. From... Telstra, because they run all of the phone lines, even though I want to get as far away from them as possible.
