    Oh, but @triplej is far-less-national than I understood. Still a big chunk of this drive where neither broadcast radio or @optus signal penetrate.

    @Cazzawhy @TigerAncient @SenSHenderson It’s also important that an opposition member of parliament can hold an MP accountable and be aware of lack of access to emergency services to the public in which they serve. Remembering what happened to Optus when people died as a result of losing the same access that was lost yesterday.

    @Kennedy00766502 Hi Kennedy, sorry to hear you have yet to receive an eSIM to activate your service. I can appreciate that this is not an ideal situation. Did you get an email with additional instructions for downloading your eSIM? Alternatively, have you tried logging in to your My Optus app and going to Account > SIM Management > Activate eSIM and follow the prompts. If the above doesn't seem to work, feel free to send through a DM, so we can confirm a few more details and see what the next best steps are. -Athan

    @footyindustryAU SBS know what their doing and I hope they never lose it again. They proved themselves the home of the world cup after Optus.

    @borisstephens Firstly, taxes do not fund government spending, critical misconception the establishment perpetuates on purpose to justify austerity. Secondly, you're right to say that just throwing money at problems does not automatically fix anything. You still need competent management and a plan. All nationalisation does at a baseline is remove the profit motive that leads to cutting corners on network maintenance to save money, which is what leads in part to outages like this. And I haven't just proposed renationalisation, I've also proposed using Optus' satellite expertise to create a publicly-owned, privacy-first satellite internet network to challenge Starlink.

    @Teh_Jkr @Optus I spent 2 hours taking to support to get the intro deals they have to save 30 bucks, but it's still insane how expensive it is when I don't need more data, especially since I lose reception in Melbourne

    @matt_barrie @van00sa And Optus went down right after Albanese visited Beijing in July last year.

    @QBCCIntegrity @Optus The one time ever Optus didn’t go down.

    Update 5. Annnddd we're done. "Glad we've been able to help you. This case is now resolved" So, if you are hearing impaired you are not welcome at Optus ... they will only help you if you can speak on the phone. Disgraceful in this day and age @Optus. @Vodafone, here I come!
