Australia has some very wierd consquences of our government doing so almost ten years on. One of those is which is that the "Gang of Four" have effectively set a floor price on domestic transit that is much higher than it should be - meaning that much content is delivered to us from overseas because the cost of delivering in Australia to those networks is too high to do so economically. Even a lot of Australian content is hosted overseas for this reason.
Snap, same problem in ZA. Except it's a gang of two. You don't want your government involved, you want them to go away... Unfortunately our government misinterpreted "go away" as "get more involved, here lies money", so watch out for that too! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFJDqlX0FZZWLfHKjURArQIAJ9yljqGppZorgD4Q99JOtCIMIB9igCfSg9D 9erfOYsDSM2IuQxylgcdVgE= =SGyH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
