  @TimjboAU I will be more than interested if this has been issues related to routers in call centres, and what was the country of origin, I did recommend long ago to Optus the reasoning for not using a certain China Telco provider. I wonder if history has repeated?

  @SkyNewsAust quote: "Ms Wells previously attracted criticism for an international trip amid the fallout of a major triple-zero outage involving Optus".. and that travel rort thing that we are supposed to have forgotten about....

  @heidimur This isn’t just about Telstra. We saw similar issues with Optus. If our emergency communications and critical infrastructure are meant to be resilient, why do single network outages continue to have such widespread impacts? It’s time to review whether our redundancy is truly independent, or whether we’re relying on backups that share the same points of failure.

  @SimDumplings mmc needs to step up their game and do a **** ton of reissues like they did with Optus Prominon

  @YoiksAndAway @Optus @Telstra Absolutely. Management that place personal greed above service should not be in service industries, and those who endanger lives for personal gain should not be at liberty.

  @therevaknight Because of Government incompetence, they had no simple backup system, they made NO allowances for technological failure, complexity is the enemy of reliable; the reliability issue was known (ref previous OPTUS outage). NO REDUNDANCY for critical infrastructure! @heidimur

  @Kate3015 Remember 18 Sept 2025 when Optus had a 000 outage because no one though to make some test calls to ensure the service was working after an upgrade? Doing a test is basic common sense.

  @JHewy23 @wigley_matthew @FootyonNine By “this crap” do you mean obvious fact?? So Optus stadium is Freo’s home ground. If they had 4 other sides that use it as their home ground too, but Freo had twice the supporter base of those clubs so can dominate the crowd noise each week and barely leave WA you wouldn’t see that as an enormous advantage over the competition??? Of course it is. That doesn’t mean you’re wrong at all, they have to play the other teams that occupy the MCG as home also. It’s also not any fault of Collingwood to have the biggest supporter base in the land either. Both points can be correct at the same time. But there’s no doubt it’s an enormous advantage every year for Collingwood, Richmond, Melbourne and Hawthorn….

  The Optus Stadium surface is simply the worst; it’s worse than those arena shows that do Disney on Ice

  @Adrian_Arciuli @FIFAWorldCup MCG, Optus and Adelaide are Ovals and non starters. Cake Tin would and should be knocked down to expand. Given cricket isn't played there it would be rectangular, By 2042 Stadium Australia will have been rebuilt Perth should have a 40k rectangular Hopefully expanded Coopers
