  @FranMooMoo i'll admit to not knowing much about how they work but will elons service be piggybacking off telstra/optus hardware like most 3rd party internet isps with broadband or will it be his own towers/whatever

  @AlanBixter Particularly after @Optus emergency access fuckups, there's no excuse for not having robust redundancies & fail safes @Telstra are likely more focussed on cost-cutting & leveraging unwanted, untested AI to boost management bonuses CEOs should face jail time for such negligence

  Australians deserve answers on many things that concern Labor.. on your continuing lying your actions concerning Australia.. your misogyny.. your disgusting stance on women .. the aged .. veterans .. how you gift taxpayers money to overseas .. we Ned an audit on Gov’t actions.. on you ant the whole Labor party .. Anthony Albanese says the outage affecting Telstra’s national network was “deeply concerning”, claiming Australians were “entitled to answers” but that investigations were ongoing. “It’s very disruptive to people’s lives throughout the country. This is a national outage that has varied effects,” the Prime Minister told reporters in Brisbane. “The Triple-0 custodian is in constant contact with Telstra and with the emergency services, and investigations are underway at this stage. What Telstra have indicated to the government is that they don’t see this as being … malicious, but those investigations are underway.” Mr Albanese pointed to government measures crackind won on Australian telco’s in the wake of the Optus Triple-0 scandal claiming the government would continue to engage with Telstra over the outage. “We’ll continue to engage constructively. But I think people are entitled to get answers, but they also want answers that are accurate and those investigations are ongoing,” he said.

  @Michael83424242 This started under the LNP are you senile, stupid or deliberately been disingenuous? Communications outages & breaches occurred under the tenure of Paul Fletcher, who served as Minister- 2019 to 2022. The 2022 Data Breach: In Sept, Optus suffered a massive cyber-attack!

  Currently Sim confirmation is Huawei to Huawei but my sim is not here. I do have check Optus network response time when a request is sent. I've been timing everything for a very long time so I know everything and how it's supposed to be operating.

  @clarkes I don't think it's 4G specifically that causes the issue, it's that we have one major mobile network operator, and two others. Between them they don't provide comprehensive coverage across the country because of our sheer size. And they don't play together. Except Optus & TPG
