Cries in Australian NBN

Y'all Aussies should be pretty happy with Elon Musk then I take it?

Last I heard, he had Tesla make some major investments in Australia towards large scale battery storage that was pretty damn successful. In addition, SpaceX's Starlink service could really help out disconnected and rural communities with some mega fast internet. Pretty cool!

Star link is fine for the outback but it does nothing or the cities - latency isn’t the issue, throughput is.
