    It’s a shame what happened with NBN in Australia. Fantastic idea, shit execution because they cheaped out.

      They didn’t cheap out. Liberals (the name of the conservative party, basically Republicans) spent 3 times as much money for a shitter product, and now Australia has to spend it all over again to redo it.
