Um! no, Telstra is listed on the Aussie & Kiwi stock exchanges and the largest 
shareholder is the Australian Government.

I am also a Telstra shareholder. Regretfully a small one, of insufficient 
influence to demand that they lay high capacity cable to my front gate.

Interestingly the foaming at the mouth of Kiwis when mentioning the level of 
products and services from Telecom can also be observed across the ditch when 
Aussies refer to Telstra.
