Private telecommunications operators are also covered by the IPA.

But that's exactly the point: the law does not seem to make that distinction. I know ambiguity in law is usually self serving, but in this case they dropped the ball because of what you could call a pre-existing condition :). If they really want to use that definition they will have to firm it up.
