💉💉💉 Granville in FNQ 😷 (@Granville4879) reported from Cairns, Queensland@toninicho I am now, seriously, thinking of changing my carrier after years of being with Optus Problem is Telstra cost me a first full money last time I was with them and I dropped Vodaphone over their poor customer service.

Not This Little Black Duck 💉💉💉💉😷⚖️☮️ (@YoiksAndAway) reported@AlanBixter Particularly after @Optus emergency access fuckups, there's no excuse for not having robust redundancies & fail safes @Telstra are likely more focussed on cost-cutting & leveraging unwanted, untested AI to boost management bonuses CEOs should face jail time for such negligence

Digby’s mum (@CallieBuddy) reported@externallylaws Can confirm the outage impacted the wilds of NT - where there is no Optus service.

Pelli69 (@pelli_69) reported@chrissmithonair @optus_support Good luck mate. Optus support is useless. Took me 6 weeks to link internet and mobile account from here in Australia

Christopher Lange (@Christo12292090) reported@Ausbobsmit @BrParkes Vodafone and Optus have taken over the operation of the 000 system while Telstra is down. Get your facts straight loser.

Casey McGregor (@CaseyMcGregorAu) reported@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.

Jeremy (@jez99) reportedWhat an absolute joke from Telstra today. Changed companies to them from Optus over their outage a few years ago and it still happens. Had no connection all morning.

William Evans (@will_evans_qld) reportedBack when Optus went down I was a Telstra customer. I moved over to amaysim which is Optus, and now the Big T has gone down. #winning

Cunners (@lachy_cunners) reported@jordy_perry I mean Dogga averages 130 or something stupid like that at Optus against some darn good rucks. Better shout that daicos with a Finn hard tag

Bruce Goodwin (@zzbrgood) reported@lodo25 @Ausbobsmit I’m usually in favour of government owned utilities but in my opinion the only privatised function that appears to work is communications. If there was only Telstra we’d be paying top dollar with no alternatives. I’m with Optus and my wife with Telstra so there wasn’t a problem.
