  Better get my pre game post out before Optus is full and the network fails to load. Tonight is a test @freodockers . You have studied for it. You have prepared. Now it is time get out there and ace the exam. Harness the nerves and kick between the two big sticks #foreverfreo

  Millions of Australians may have had data accessed by “hackers” after Origin Energy confirmed it is investigating a cybersecurity incident. It could be one of the biggest “cyberattacks” Australia has faced following similar strikes on Optus, Medibank and Qantas. Most of the cyber “hacks” on Australian companies have actually been leaks due to incompetent, lazy IT staff—Origin received and email from the “hacker” but because said hacker didn’t reply to questions from Origin, the company pretended it didn’t happen until the hacker contacted the median. As I said, incompetent lazy IT staff.

  @simonbiddle @taipan168 As much as I defend funding government services, the notion that government run IT will be more reliable than Telstra/Optus is just not believable given the various IT issues we see on a constant basis from Centrelink and who can forget the debacle of the last Census

  @TimjboAU Remember a week ago when the entire telstea network went down? Remember a month before that when the entire optus/tpg network went down? Now next week we have the entire network government alert thing happening? Yeah, those network outages were 100% preparation for next week.

  @Naymmm_ @stupidtechtakes *actually the governments fault for whatever stupid reason, they forced Telstra/TPG/Optus to do these blanket bans on VoLTE capable devices if they weren’t sold locally for whatever reason
