  • anarchotaoist 🅐nⒶrcHo-t🅐oiSt (@anarchotaoist) reported

    @DavidLeyonhjelm The government is behaving as if they wish to shut down Optus, centralise all telco operation (& internet) under Telstra in a plan to i.d, monitor and control all communications. #TheGreatReset

  • Harvarine Harb (@Harvarine) reported

    @ItsTheHermit tbf it's not every month but it happens often enough that it's pretty annoying. Telstra service is okay where I live but I also live right next to an optus tower so it's usually fast

  • justinjonesblog Justin Jones (@justinjonesblog) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    It’s the “Dear Justin” to “Dear Customer” for me. This really looks like a suss email that is doing Optus zero favours. #OptusHack #OptusDataBreach #Optus

  • AVFC_Bailey AVFC_Bailey🇦🇺|🇮🇳 (@AVFC_Bailey) reported

    Is anyone else’s optus sport sound not working?

  • jaquix173 💧 Jackie (@jaquix173) reported

    @josiegirl62 Again, the total "hands off" approach by Optus. They're not putting themselves out at all are they? No Customer Service in evidence. I've taken my business elsewhere and got a far better deal!

  • JSNoble James Noble (@JSNoble) reported

    @trevorlong @Optus That last one is key for me. My wife is an Optus customer, but she hasn’t heard a thing - no text, no email… nothing. So initially, we assumed she’s not involved. Great! But as this drags on, that just seems really naive to now think…

  • Mobsy1812 Mobs (@Mobsy1812) reported

    @karenandrewsmp Hopefully reversing any watering down of cyber security obligations @PaulFletcherMP facilitated for his old employer @Optus in 2020….

  • taitoko_naomi Naomi outsourcer of parenting Watson (@taitoko_naomi) reported

    @karenandrewsmp Well maybe if Optus actually had any appropriate security of its customer data… Wait wasn’t it your government that allowed Optus to weaken its data security? Hmmm.

  • btcnasia btcn asia (@btcnasia) reported

    @DeniseBeale Yep. We're all on our own. Current customer. One generic email received. Several unsuccessful attempts to speak to a human, or even god forbid, a chatbot. #optusfail #OptusHack Future ex Optus customer when my contract expires. RT @intrepid144

  • ABZand Adrian Zandberg (@ABZand) reported

    @DavidLeyonhjelm This is a poor take. First, the aggrieved party is current and former customers of Optus who now have serious, possibly irreversible consequences. Optus will almost certainly be proven to have been criminally negligent in handling these data. The incompetence is/was astounding.
