Here's an interesting quote from an Irish Times opinion piece from the 1st of December 1998 on the impending privatisation of Telecom Eireann:

If the British experience is any guide, there will be routine complaints about the regulation of the industry and allegations that some companies are intent on "cherry-picking" in certain markets. Several years on, there may be a suspicion among consumers that monopoly in some markets has been replaced by duopoly, in which two major players carve up the market.
