  @jfwfreo @D_LittleproudMP Exactly. I live remotely, and the local tower broke down. It took 3 weeks for Optus to arrive. Meanwhile I used the local pay phone most days to conduct business and to phone concerned friends and relatives. Littleproud has no idea how the remote live. He’s just another National

  @CharlesSzulc Telstra will appear before a Senate inquiry into its outage, starting next Friday. Senator Henderson is involved in the (apparently ongoing) Optus one. It'll be be interesting if she now asks questions of Telstra, as will be forthcoming media reports.

  @NoticerNews Same reason for the recent Optus outage. This woke CEO & Labor government needs to swing.

  @7NewsMelbourne But you still have to go with an Aus provider as they own the leases on the spectrum it uses and are the only ones to provide service in buildings and high density areas. Optus & Telstra already can provide sms via starlink with calls and data in a few years. So no - the major telcos are not under threat.

  @Optus This morning, just after 11am, I noticed that my @Optus @NBN_Australia connection stopped working, resulting in no internet or telephone service. I’m located in the Inner West Sydney area. Is this an unscheduled outage. What is going on? This is so frustrating!

  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.

  @hardenuppete @originenergy They should be forced to pay for credit tracking for each customer that has had their account hacked for 12 months like Optus had to with Equifax.

  @FranMooMoo If a business or a surface does not have a backup alternative to everything then they are the problem. Thanks have backup lines maybe Telstra with primary Tpg with a backup. Same with 000. Might have the primary line with Telstra and a backup line with Optus or a WhatsApp #
