I presume that Sky should also not have a monopoly over their satellite TV systems, also privately funded.

The difference with the BT network is that it was publicly funded before the "privatisation" of Thatcher's government.

Ultimately thouhg we do have a choice, the choice may be between fundamentally different technologies, but it is a choice all the same that would not have been there had the private cable and TV networks not been built.
