  • corymedia Cory (@corymedia) reported from Geelong, State of Victoria

    If the .@Optus network wasn’t so bad and .@VodafoneAU wasn’t ridiculously panicked as to whether I can pay (because they made it clear they think I don’t make enough money), I’d be looking for a better network.

    @Optus Hi Aman, I appreciate that but I was told that before when I was promised multiple phone calls that never eventuated. Never mind the FTTN service we are getting drops out constantly and isn’t as reliable as the previous DSL service at my old address.

    @ClareONeilMP @antissa If I did this at my school all Hell would break loose. We get in trouble for any sharing of private information - as we should. How do people whose entire private identity data has been taken from Optus cope with future threat of impersonation?

  • qahowa BigM (@qahowa) reported

    Let me tell you about what I believe *REALLY* happened with @optus, I believe that the public are not told the full story, and being a customer of Optus, I had my personal details leaked due to their inaction and deception @acccgovau #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach #OptusFail

  • LeftDownunder Leftist Downunder (@LeftDownunder) reported

    Cybersecurity is expensive. So there’s two options with this Optus situation. Either impose massive fines for failing to adequately protect customer data, to create an incentive that currently doesn’t exist, or nationalise it and turn telecommunication back into a public utility.

    @noreasonspec why ******** does Optus have Medicare numbers? admittedly it's been a while since I signed a new telco contract, but they don't ask for 100pts of ID do they? just photo ID iirc.

  • lukewiwa Wiwa (The Tom Brady of Gymnastics) (@lukewiwa) reported

    Good to see the Optus thing is solved. The system works. Not my problem anymore.

  • kpmsubs KPM (@kpmsubs) reported

    @ClareONeilMP Minister, I was canceling my Optus account today & there was resistance from the loyalty team. I was asked to cancel in early Oct, the reason being that the individual staff cancellation score is getting too high and therefore affects their wage. This is how Optus treats staff.

  • AntBA013 Ant B (@AntBA013) reported

    The solution to @Optus hacking of IDs will be the 'trusted' Digital ID The solution to whatever money problem to come will be Digital Currency The overall solution for these problems, will be digital wallet linked to your Digital ID #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach #auspol

    @RoadknightThe @Raf_Epstein Optus have always been second tier , couldn’t service people in the bush for yrs and this just highlights how efficient they are at their job. Gladys won’t help either lol

  • YoSpecc GLM Spec (@YoSpecc) reported

    @GritfoxPriv @Telstra Can’t believe I switched to Optus when the floods happened cause internet was down for 2 weeks, they have my info now, let’s just hope I’m one of the lucky ones who dosent get it released

  • NiKKi_E13 Nikki (@NiKKi_E13) reported

    @Nick56412479 I’m disappointed to hear this. Optus helped me through a period of homelessness and I’ve always been so thankful for the service they’ve provided us. I almost signed up for a new phone the day before I heard of this breach.
