  First optus, now telstra had a global outage, seems legit i guess, paves the way for a global network blackout if need, cause look how well that went. Chaos

  @MelbOnTransit @Urban_Immerser Why don't V/line use a back up telco provider beside telstra? So if one goes down they got some form of commication. V/Line should back up Telstra with Optus in case on goes out!

  @mdtlion FYI! The Labor Government have STILL NOT released the findings of the OPTUS OUTAGE in September 2025. DONT hold your breath for answers folks! CHEERS ANNIKA!

  @theheraldsun Telstra’s outage affected many states but Victoria’s train network was most affected. Why more than other states? State government stuff up. Optus has had outages too so you shouldn’t be fully reliant on these telcos.

  @BoxnDiceExp How the hell does VLine not have a redundancy with Optus or another network in this scenario... seriously what morons do they have working there?

  @david89293299 Where was the communications minister moron? Some one needed to step up and actually test it! Not like the the bungled Optus uggrade where the 000 outage went unnoticed for hours. Smart and proactive! Not something you Labtards would know anything about

  @nswpolice A question. As modern phones support Sat for messages - mine switched to it - should we be pushing for configs that use Sat for 000 for these circumstances? This is a good time to push Telstra and Optus to look at it rather than fine them

  Good. It took me 20 minutes to cancel my @Optus 5G for no reason other than they want to make it difficult
