The commission says TPG has a commercial imperative and the capabilities to roll out its own mobile network and that the merger would preclude TPG’s entry, therefore substantially lessening competition. The ACCC might wish for a different telecommunications landscape but that doesn’t mean it would emerge.
I think there's a basic conflict between the market-economics dream of many completely independent providers all busily competing with one-another, and the Australian reality. Constructing independent physical networks in a country like Australia is just stupid.
