    @evilscootus I wonder if it's also hit the services that piggyback off the Optus signal.

    Optus already provides a ******, sub-standard service. Then this. Get ******, pretty much.

  • droverdriver61 An Old Guy WYSIWYG 💉💉💉💉😷 🐀 (@droverdriver61) reported

    Optus says it has been hit by a cyber attack that has compromised customer information. ABCNews app.

  • TheRealPembo Michael Pemberton (@TheRealPembo) reported

    @sallyrugg The biggest concern for Optus is that they normally get paid when they give customer details to a third party.

  • hardenuppete Glen Schaefer (@hardenuppete) reported

    @Dotheday @Optus At this stage @Optus are saying it was a data breach, not a service outage.

  • Cherie_L___ Cherie 💙💛🤍 (@Cherie_L___) reported

    Does the @Optus data breach include @DodoAustralia? This is a serious privacy issue.

  • AussieGuyChris AussieGuyChris.eth (@AussieGuyChris) reported

    @Optus Shame you guys leaked thousands of private customer details...nothing on Twitter about it, wonder why?

  • King_Millez Miles Greenwark (@King_Millez) reported

    Articles on @Optus and the #OptusHack are failing to mention that 9.2m is about 90% of their entire customer base.

  • BidgeeWagga Robert (@BidgeeWagga) reported

    @NourHaydar @abcnews Optus never notified me, only found out via the media.
