anthonyspiteri.net (@anthonyspiteri) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@drzax What is the suggestion then? All I’m seeing is the media looking to crucify @Optus for… yes a serious incident, but one that happens almost weekly in terms of big breaches.

Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaThe worst performance at Optus Stadium since Melbourne’s first half in the 2018 Preliminary Final #BBL09
-
Dylan (@d__mac77) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaI definitely recommend getting the 661 shuttle to Optus Stadium (instead of the train if you're already in the city), until the final stop (Causeway) I was the only person on board! No problems social distancing here!

Dilli Gurung (@MukhyaDilli) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@dodo hi there, is dodo customer affected by Optus cyber attack?

Michael Dowling #ClimateActionNow (@MeckeringBoy) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@ObeeWhen @GrrrumpyPants There was a queue of people with similar hack issues. I don’t know how much business Optus is doing these days. I walked out in disgust.

adrian barich (@adrianbarich) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaWell done Bombers, huge effort at Optus. Eagles rolled the dice with Yeo and the one midfielder they couldn’t afford to lose went down, TK. Unlucky. Down on rotations. 3 underdone players plus 2 out of the game was too much. Probs thought they had to play Yeo, limited options
-
Sarah (@sezlloydy) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@dod1968 @TimGossage No delay at all (that's where I was sceptical). Link into the Optus WIFI and then choose the live play option on the SEN app. I will say forget the WIFI network and then relog in each game. I had to do that as for some reason wouldn't work straight away

H. Adam in Aus 🇦🇺🇮🇩🕋💧🌊 (@AdamVW1958) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaSo I rang Optus because they have completely stuffed up my account. At 7.30 Eastern they said closes at 8pm but no one answering in technical support so best you call again tomorrow he said Great service #optus

Freopics_ (@freopics_) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaCan you bring your DSLR camera to Optus Stadium? I did at Subi but never at Optus, scared it will get taken away lol. Would love to take it for Sundays game @wheresshelly @freodockers

Tebyanian (@Tebyanian) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@Optus dealing with your customer service team when I'm enquiring about SWITCHING over to Optus is painful and excruciating!! I'm really curious to see how you deal with existing customers and actual complaints
-
Victor Yong (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaHow do I complain to NBN. Having it since 2 weeks ago and it’s unstable with frequent dropouts. Currently typing this while using mobile data. Can anyone help me out. My ISP is Optus since 2007. Forced to switchover 2 and a half weeks ago
-
Sarah (@sezlloydy) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@lkmaher33 You're right they have, 25 years ago. Has changed in that time. Did you see the crowd at the Origin last year? Was the largest ever crowd at Optus prior to the Bledisloe cup game. Also had 44k for the NRL double header last year at Optus. Not bad for an AFL state

Victor #StaySafe 🇦🇺 (@BigV2011WCE) reported from Westfield, Western AustraliaIs it just me or am I getting “streaming issue” on Fetch @Optus
-
West Coast Eagles (@WestCoastEagles) reported from Westfield, Western Australia“With not much footy being played yet on Lathlain and Optus is a bit hard. The career savers have a bit more cushion, support.” Barrass on grass cats
-
Cory Gale 🦘🇦🇺 (@cory_gale) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@TexanMeg @Telstra @Optus Do it! I haven’t really had any issues so far on my regional trips since switching over. The places where it cuts out don’t seem to work for Don either, who is on Telstra.

🅃🄸🄽🄶🄰🅂 (@Tingas75) reported from Westfield, Western Australia@stuartistics @AFL Freo do nothing for 119 minutes & then it’s the umpires fault for them losing. I sat at Optus for that entire game. Wish I could charge for having to watch some of the worst 110 minutes of footy and the wish I could double charge for the 10 minutes of choking at the finish line

Emma’s Last Stand (@EmmasLastStand) reportedMillions of Australians may have had data accessed by “hackers” after Origin Energy confirmed it is investigating a cybersecurity incident. It could be one of the biggest “cyberattacks” Australia has faced following similar strikes on Optus, Medibank and Qantas. Most of the cyber “hacks” on Australian companies have actually been leaks due to incompetent, lazy IT staff—Origin received and email from the “hacker” but because said hacker didn’t reply to questions from Origin, the company pretended it didn’t happen until the hacker contacted the median. As I said, incompetent lazy IT staff.

BRODA (@RazeBannon) reported@BritishHodl Grok can an ISP block voice over IP? Yes, ISPs can block Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic at their network level, and many do so in practice. This is technically feasible using tools like port blocking, deep packet inspection (DPI), and other traffic management techniques. How ISPs Block VoIP ISPs control the core network infrastructure, so they can inspect and filter traffic before it reaches customers. Common methods include: Port-based blocking**: Traditional VoIP often uses specific ports like UDP 5060/5061 for SIP (signaling) and a range of ports (e.g., 10000–20000) for RTP (media/voice). ISPs can simply drop traffic on these ports. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)**: This examines not just headers but packet contents, signatures, packet sizes, timing, and protocol behavior to identify VoIP even if it uses non-standard ports or obfuscation. DPI can dynamically detect and block SIP, RTP, or app-specific patterns (e.g., Skype, WhatsApp calls). IP address or domain blacklisting**: Blocking known servers of VoIP providers. Protocol anomaly detection or traffic shaping**: Dropping or throttling UDP-heavy, low-latency streams typical of voice calls. Real-World Examples Certain countries and carriers (e.g., in the Middle East, Morocco, Philippines, or places with state telecom monopolies) block VoIP to protect traditional phone revenue or for regulatory reasons. Mobile providers like Optus 4G or others have blocked SIP traffic. Corporate/school networks or bandwidth-limited ISPs sometimes block or deprioritize VoIP to conserve resources. China has historically blocked VoIP, though workarounds emerged over time. Limitations and Challenges for Complete Blocking Encryption and obfuscation**: Modern VoIP (e.g., over WebRTC, HTTPS, or apps like Signal/WhatsApp) is harder to detect reliably. DPI isn't foolproof against randomized ports, variable packet patterns, or VPN-like wrapping. VPNs and tunnels**: Users can often bypass blocks by routing traffic through a VPN, which encrypts and hides the VoIP signature. Evasion techniques**: Providers and users adapt with port hopping, STUN/TURN servers, or proxies. False positives**: Overly aggressive blocking can disrupt other UDP-based services (gaming, video streaming). Complete, unbreakable blocking is difficult long-term without also harming general internet performance, but partial or effective blocking for most users is very achievable. Why ISPs Do This Reasons include protecting legacy telephony revenue, complying with regulations, managing bandwidth, reducing congestion, or enforcing content policies. In summary, yes—ISPs have both the capability and precedent for blocking VoIP, primarily via DPI and port controls, though motivated users can often circumvent it. If you're dealing with a specific ISP or scenario, details could help narrow down options.

V (@VDejan0000) reported@NoticerNews Same reason for the recent Optus outage. This woke CEO & Labor government needs to swing.
