    @Optus @RunnerSA18 this breach is bigger than Optus. Australia has a "paper hunger". That need to copy and secure personal documents at will. Instead of relying on staff to sight and declare, based in name and birthday and month, not year. It isn't necessary to hold docs to supply a service.

  • FredNurf Sixth Sense 🎖️ - Donbas Revenge 🇷🇺 strikes 🇺🇦 (@FredNurf) reported

    @VDejan0000 @MailOnline my guess is that Putin has never heard of Optus. and who's behind Optus? The Singapore Government owns Optus. "Singtel Optus Pty Limited (commonly referred to as Optus) ... It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Singtel."

    "I’m disappointed that we couldn’t prevent it" -- Optus CEO. There was nothing to prevent, all you had to do was keep the data safe. There was no attack, this was just negligence. This comes down to a bad practices and a bad internal culture @Optus #OptusDataBreach #databreach

    Oh ****! It's not just current customers. I haven't been with Optus in about a decade. 😬#TheProjectTV

  • OMGTheMess Old Soldier (@OMGTheMess) reported

    Dear @Optus Disturbing news. Be advised that should I be required to reestablish my identity or repair damage to my identity I shall be seeking recovery of all my costs.

  • Tifosipazzi Al Opinionated (@Tifosipazzi) reported

    @Optus are you going to compensate customers against any losses that result from your poor IT systems. No one is asking that question #optusfail #OptusDataBreach

    @cameronwilson Must have been one Privacy Law broken? #Optus #OptusFail

  • marzephyr12 Mark (@marzephyr12) reported

    @saltyskin_ @Optus Really not happy how **** the response is. Literally no communication yesterday and found out about it on the news.

  • oldgreynurse Old Grey Nurse (@oldgreynurse) reported

    @nineislands Optus? I laugh because I’m an optus customer, experience dreadful coverage here in the country & only with them because they aren’t telstra. Now, that data breach!

  • redambition OverExhaustedAmbition ✨ (@redambition) reported

    @GordyPls @tobyallen I mean, Optus tech support once told me that if I had more than 10 devices connected to my router that the internet would run out before the last devices could get any connectivity, so they’re not far off.
