Embedded networks were, indeed, originally all about phone services and energy supply, and sweetheart deals done with developers.
Even though those have been pretty much closed down by consumer protection legislation, the term has stuck to cover anything that involves the developer getting a freebie while the apartment owner pays through the nose.
the ACT does seem to lead the way on a lot of strata law; the regulations on changes to lots that help the environment are about to be adopted by Victoria.
Even so, it doesn’t prevent disasters like the Elara (??) complex.
