Optus Issues Reports

    The way that the Optus hack issue will be solved is by requiring even more personal data (facial data, biometrics, and so on) for verifying identity, which will affect all of us, and also make future errors even more of a problem, and more risky.

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 hello, who is managing your penetration tests, did you heed and invest in their advice? Was the customer data encrypted? was the data all in one place?

  • abbasbashir Abbas Bashir 🇵🇰🇵🇸 (@abbasbashir) reported

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 I got informed today. I will never be a part of Optus again

  • Ros95999645 Ros (@Ros95999645) reported

    @hughriminton Not the GOVT Optus should be Paying, they make Billions a Year, Pay No Tax, and have been scabby with upgrading software and they have the worst customer service EVER!!!!

  • Pezzamystic1 Pez (@Pezzamystic1) reported

    I feel somewhat aggrieved that @Optus thought that my personal data was worth so little. 20 years as a loyal customer wasn't worth protecting #OptusDataBreach #OptusClassAction

  • terencecarter Terence Carter (@terencecarter) reported

    @SenPaterson @Birmo So Australians should pay for an Optus efup? Speaking passports, why did you guys plan a new passport model during an unprecedented surge in demands for passports? DFAT Can't keep up and the new passports have issues. Complete LNP disaster. Good time to STFU.

  • UnionAgitator Union Agitator (@UnionAgitator) reported

    @PMalinauskasMP Why aren't you billing Optus for this? Another subsidy by the taxpayer to a **** foreign company

  • surajpandey10 Dr Suraj Pandey (@surajpandey10) reported

    .@Telstra As a happy customer of yours, I am beginning to worry of potential future data leaks (such as with #Optus). Can you delete my personal documents from your system, now that I am already verified and am using your services? #righttoerasure #OptusDataBreach

    @Graeme_Orr @Optus Hah. They had my wife's details from when she was a Virgin customer. She's never been an Optus customer.

    @OMGTheMess A good booster and reintroduction of mask mandates will fix the Optus issues.
