    @CharlieBBucket Seriously, at this point Optus is ***************. Can't keep your info safe and can't even provide a service ppl pay them for.

    Can confirm that @optus can’t even offer a temporary solution for the internet outage. I have no or very little internet until Oct 14.

    @KamalaHarris Do you know Americans are not our concerns at least right now? While they have killed a 2 years old and many young people by leaning your money and support in Iran? Please stop thinking that Middle East is not part of planet earth @Optus @Oprah #مهسا_امینی

    The Optus hacker has less of my personal data than this Airbnb host who’s making me upload a work, residential and credit history to spend two nights in a house with a broken Nespresso machine.
