Yes, Australia destroys his whole argument. They went the Swiss way with a single provider (NBN).

But then broke it badly when a major lobbyist (Rupert Murdoch) wanted to kill streaming competition for as long as possible.

The Australian system is much better than the US system, even with 1/10th the country-level density. The internet here is generally faster and cheaper than the suburban US, with a similar system to Switzerland.

We have our NBN fibre here in Australia and it works fine. We can get 1000 down / 400 up for ~100USD.
