  Wondering whether the Telstra CEO Vicky Brady will break down and cry when she fronts up to the media about the system outage, just like the Optus CEO Kelly Bayer Rosmarin did, following the system outage in 2022?

  Doesn’t seen to be the same outrage with Telstra outage than Optus 🤔

  @JacintaAllanMP We saw similar issues with Optus. There is supposed to be redundancy that allows emergency calls to be carried over any available mobile network. 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 backup systems that share the same points of failure.

  @JHewy23 @wigley_matthew @FootyonNine By “this crap” do you mean obvious fact?? So Optus stadium is Freo’s home ground. If they had 4 other sides that use it as their home ground too, but Freo had twice the supporter base of those clubs so can dominate the crowd noise each week and barely leave WA you wouldn’t see that as an enormous advantage over the competition??? Of course it is. That doesn’t mean you’re wrong at all, they have to play the other teams that occupy the MCG as home also. It’s also not any fault of Collingwood to have the biggest supporter base in the land either. Both points can be correct at the same time. But there’s no doubt it’s an enormous advantage every year for Collingwood, Richmond, Melbourne and Hawthorn….

  The fact that the emergency AusAlert didn’t reach Optus customers who had no Optus coverage, despite Telstra towers being available, is absurd. An emergency warning system should use any available network to deliver life-saving alerts—not fail because your own carrier is down. In a disaster, network loyalty shouldn’t determine who gets warned. This needs to be fixed before the next emergency.

  @iisancs Hi Isan, we're sorry to hear you're experiencing issues with your internet connection in spite of paying your monthly Optus bill. Please send us a DM with your full service address and your internet type, so we can take a look and investigate further. -Enku

  @externallylaws Can confirm the outage impacted the wilds of NT - where there is no Optus service.

  @Aussie_Dad5 @Zhshshdjsjsjs You’re so retarded it’s embarrassing. The fact you think turning your phone off means they can’t collect your data shows your IQ. 1. Turning off your phone isn’t turning off your phone it pings to a cell tower constantly. Most phones go into a “deep sleep” mode in which where gps, microphone and network are still active 2. If they wanted to collect data they wouldn’t need an alert to do it. They would just go to Optus and Telstra, give them your number and get everything they want. Or just ask Apple or google to comply.

  @TweetTreet @tim_blee That's bullshit, devices EFTPOS and similar devices that run on 4G/5G can use other networks, and a bit of business continuity planning would have a backup network, even for a small business, like running down to Officeworks and buying an OPTUS prepaid SIM.
