[COMP] Re: Telstra recognized as a monopoly

That made for an interesting read, thanks John!

Thank god for the ACCC, if Telstra had their way we would be paying for
timed local calls with huge flagfalls and having a maximum data rate of
2400bps. Telstra has only just dropped its 100mb monthly limit on cable
modems (which is why I'm getting it). For a service that can download a 32mb
file in a minute - 100mb simply isn't enough.
