  @eevblog @MichaelSmicqfw Really? I think that was only in the context of your NBN being down for a week... Starlink (or any satellite internet) really isn't useful in a city like Sydney, and when lots of people insist on using it there it will only get more and more expensive. It is for rural areas.

  @Telstra Your customer service team are disgusting. They mixed up NBN and Optimcomm and not one person answered a single question I asked. Absolutely disgusting. I want to raise a formal complaint.

  @smith_johnxxxx @Sauronlordking @VDejan0000 NBN was not a '**** up', until Abbott became PM.

  @theinfradev @ruicharadrius I'm not revising history. The plan was fttp everywhere, with Telstra and optus copper being bought out to move them to the NBN. The copper was never going to be used for the NBN. Look at the Telstra definitive agreements from 2011.

  @ruicharadrius This is the most retarded tweet I’ve ever seen. A) falsely thinks WiFi is “the internet” B) doesn’t realise Aussie mobile coverage is some of the best in the world C) NBN is good now. My guess is your WiFi router is crap or too small for your house

  @ichimikichiki @Lisa9Sophia The NBN is still one of the biggest waste of money in Australia's history. The government never had any business sticking its nose in.

  @timtheous Hey there, sorry to hear we've left you feeling this way after trying to upgrade your nbn technology type. I have passed on your feedback to the relevant teams to review for future improvements. I'd recommend reaching out to our Sales Team to further discuss your options. You can do so, via the Messaging service on the My Optus app or by calling them on 1800 508 000 (Mon - Fri: 9am - 7pm Sat - Sun: 9am - 5pm AEST). -Athan

  This should NEVER happen. We have written to the federal minister and the NBN objecting to this and to clarify their total expenditure here. This data was all procured directly from the SCA 2026 Conference Sponsorship website page. (7/7)
