    @joshgnosis Is Australia really at the arse end of the Infosec regulation spectrum? Right now, it seems Optus have broken no industry regulation, or law for : The breach itself, the subsequent handling and communication to both the industry and customers, the storage of multiple 1/2

  • submarine_lemon Lemon Submarine (@submarine_lemon) reported

    @lynlinking @WgarNews There is also a problem identifying what happened to whom. A phone call reveals everything is clear, yet an email says otherwise. Who is responsible for getting the truth out of Optus? And when do they reveal exactly what information was compromised for each individual?

  • sloeloris Sloe Loris (@sloeloris) reported

    @_manin_black_ @joshgnosis Optus formally advised they had let all victims know by the 26/09 - I'm a former customer who only received my email notification the 27th. So yep, I wouldn't trust them as far as I could yeet them.

    So I was a customer of Optus some years back and of course had the breach notice... Now try getting Optus to delete your account information. It's quite a feat if you're successful. Probably part of the reason they have so many former customers is due to no deletion processes.

    Foreign governments expecting Australia to cover the cost of passport replacement for travellers who chose Optus as their Australian mobile phone service provider

  • PoppityPopsPup One blue dot is all we got. Let's get to work! (@PoppityPopsPup) reported

    I didn't send. They've confirmed they never asked. FFS @Optus even email from other providers are compromised!

  • YUHeff2BSoGreen This Dalek's Workday 🇺🇦💉💉💉 (@YUHeff2BSoGreen) reported

    found some old chat transcripts with optus when i first signed up with them last year for a prepaid mobile service. used my medicare card and not my d/l. which is a relief since i've already memorised my number and would hate to get a new one. (i have a thing with numbers ok.)

  • Urchin_LMS citizen xx (au) (@Urchin_LMS) reported

    @ACurrentAffair9 Hate to disappoint you, there is nothing you can say about Optus security practices that will cause an increase in my level of fury IMO They were negligent in their data protection Their handling of #OptusHack has been poor

  • MrBJovi Bej E (@MrBJovi) reported

    @Optus @RunnerSA18 This is the worst customer service experience I have ever succumbed in the 31 years of being on this planet. Along with millions, I remain waiting for a solid response along with some serious compensation. Consider me an ex customer after the class action lawsuit.
