  @disco___cat Just so stupid, every risk and effect of this policy ignored with boomer belligerence. Basically an Optus breach 2.0 waiting to happen. Sad thing is we'll never learn

  @Optus Maybe shift a little focus to also protecting the privacy of customers also, given your remediations team seem to think they can abuse customer information, mistreat customers and then refuse them the right to a review that was agreed to in that $100M fine you copped?

  @zanofc @footyindustryAU Not really, Perth couldn’t sell out the opener at OPTUS stadium anyway, what makes you think they’ll get more against North Korea? Honestly, the atmosphere is crap being a rectangle ground at a round stadium. HBF will be 100% better and the players will enjoy it too

  I am too lazy to proof read and edit the below from grok, we had a chat in the car and below is the direct output for a post from grok, 85% my intent but could use some polish… (it gave me 3x image prompts, images from grok attached are also not proofed.) - enjoy: Why Starlink Roam Falls Flat in Australia (And How to Fix It) Honest opinion: Starlink Roam is brilliant on paper—$80 a month for 100GB priority data, perfect for caravans, motorhomes, or pros working on the go in the outback. But in reality? It’s poop for mobile use. Australia’s endless trees, dense bushland, and tunnels (think Bruce Highway or any regional drive) block the line-of-sight to satellites constantly. You’re crawling along at zero bars half the time, burning data elsewhere or offline entirely. Great for static campsites, useless in motion. The glaring hardware oversight: No LTE/cellular failover. Starlink Mini (or next-gen) should’ve shipped with an eSIM slot for Australian carriers like Telstra or Optus. When sats fail, auto-switch to 4G/5G local network as a hotspot—seamless, like your phone. Caveat: ACMA spectrum rules (IMT bands for terrestrial mobile) might need carrier partnerships, but it’s doable—Telstra/Optus already partner with Starlink for direct-to-device sat-to-phone using those bands. NBN fixed-wireless modems do exactly this: SIM failover when fibre/cable drops, approved under existing regs. If it’s green for NBN, it should be for Starlink Roam. Pricing fix for AU market: Base $19 add-on for up to 10% cellular failover (10GB on the $80 plan), covering Starlink’s wholesale data costs. Double to $38 for 100% cellular option if you’re in eternal tree hell. Keeps it affordable, competitive with eSIM hotspots, and actually usable. Starlink, take notes—Gen3 Mini or beyond, make it hybrid. Aussie travellers deserve better. What do you reckon? Roll it out!

  @ausstockchick Moonlighting as Optus Customer Support.

  @Telstra @Optus Simply inadequate. It’s getting worse, and the scale of the problem requires a different approach. @Optus, what are you doing? Crickets from you.

  @Optus we were on the phone to OPTUS for THREE HOURS to some operator in India, we just wanted to move to a faster NBN plan, and they could not migrate our old account over. NIGHTMARE and Optus are outsourcing their support to useless people in India
