  @JacintaAllanMP We saw similar issues with Optus. There is supposed to be redundancy that allows emergency calls to be carried over any available mobile network. 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 backup systems that share the same points of failure.

  @PaulBongiorno Oh woe is me ! Just purchase a sim card supported by Optus [this is redundancy contingency] when Telstra goes off line swap out their sim & slot in the backup & vice versa. Alteratively purchase a dual sim phone which allows you to switch between service providers

  @thmsenglsh i used to work at telstra and we had even more data breaches and outages than optus did but telstras like besties with every australian media outlet and funds alot of their services so everyone just bags on optus instead, telstra genuinely sucks

  @BigDog_USA @Telstra You must be deaf and blind. It was a massive outrage when Optus went down too. Not everything is about an agenda **** head.
