  @david89293299 Where was the communications minister moron? Some one needed to step up and actually test it! Not like the the bungled Optus uggrade where the 000 outage went unnoticed for hours. Smart and proactive! Not something you Labtards would know anything about

  @heidimur This isn’t just about Telstra. We saw similar issues with Optus. If our emergency communications and critical infrastructure are meant to be resilient, why do single network outages continue to have such widespread impacts? It’s time to review whether our redundancy is truly independent, or whether we’re relying on backups that share the same points of failure.

  @Starlink Internet and mobile services? Optus often down, 000 emergency has cost lives when down. Now it’s Telstra’s turn!!

  @borisstephens Firstly, taxes do not fund government spending, critical misconception the establishment perpetuates on purpose to justify austerity. Secondly, you're right to say that just throwing money at problems does not automatically fix anything. You still need competent management and a plan. All nationalisation does at a baseline is remove the profit motive that leads to cutting corners on network maintenance to save money, which is what leads in part to outages like this. And I haven't just proposed renationalisation, I've also proposed using Optus' satellite expertise to create a publicly-owned, privacy-first satellite internet network to challenge Starlink.

  Update 2: Helped to log into messaging (good). Now I discover the complaint is filed under 'a credit default' - wtf! Called to review plan and get new phone. I'm back to the person that said 'no' this morning. Would be funny if it wasn't so utterly infuriating...@Optus

  @nswpolice A question. As modern phones support Sat for messages - mine switched to it - should we be pushing for configs that use Sat for 000 for these circumstances? This is a good time to push Telstra and Optus to look at it rather than fine them

  @HaveeSnowball Unfortunately there aren’t any reasonable options for some of us I can’t get Optus network in my suburb

  @HaveeSnowball Actually, the infrastructure and technical side is still handled locally, only the CS is off-shored, but if you looked at the Optus situation involving the numerous problems caused by Singtel, you'd know Telstra is in a much better position to deal with these problems.

  @DelloPicks Worth noting he has only missed 14 at Optus once this season as is, which was probably a career worst game.
